Abstract

An electronic receipt system includes a mobile terminal in possession of a customer, a POS (Point of Sales) device installed at a store and an electronic receipt center on a cloud. When the POS device generates, as a digitized electronic receipt, receipt information on purchased merchandise purchased by a customer at the store, the POS device acquires information indicating a weight of the purchased merchandise, generates the electronic receipt in a format in which the information indicating the weight of the purchased merchandise is further added, transmits the electronic receipt to the electronic receipt center. The electronic receipt center stores the received electronic receipt and, upon receiving a transmission request from the mobile terminal, transmits the electronic receipt to the mobile terminal that has made the request. Upon receiving the electronic receipt, the mobile terminal provides a screen display of the information indicating the weight of the purchased merchandise.
