A method, system, and computer program product for accumulating coupon values in an account for future redemption is disclosed. A memory stores consumer identifiers and account identifiers such that each consumer identifier maps to one of the account identifiers (103). Each consumer identifier corresponds to a consumer and each account identifier corresponds to a points account of a consumer. A processor in communication with the memory receives transaction information at a point-of-sale (POS) in response to a transaction between one of the consumers and a retailer (115). The transaction information includes one of the consumer identifiers and coupon information of unrelated coupons (113). The processor identifies the consumer's points account from the received one of the consumer identifiers, based on the stored consumer identifiers and the stored account identifiers, converts values of the unrelated coupons to points, and credits the points account of the consumer with the points (103).

L'invention concerne un procédé, un système, et un progiciel servant à accumuler des valeurs de coupon dans un compte en vue d'un futur rachat. Une mémoire stocke des identificateurs de consommateurs et des identificateurs de comptes, si bien que chaque identificateur de consommateurs correspond à un identificateur de comptes. Chaque identificateur de consommateurs correspond à un consommateur et chaque identificateur de comptes correspond à un compte de points d'un consommateur. Un processeur communiquant avec la mémoire reçoit, au niveau d'un point de vente (PDV), des informations transactionnelles consécutives à une transaction entre un consommateur et un détaillant. Les informations transactionnelles comprennent un identificateur de consommateurs et des informations de coupons non connexes aux coupons. Le processeur identifie le compte de points du consommateur à partir de l'identificateur de consommateurs reçu, sur la base des identificateurs de consommateurs et des identificateurs de compte de points stockés, convertit en points des valeurs des coupons non connexes, et crédite le compte de points du consommateur desdits points.
