Abstract
This system or method relates to the cash award directly awarded to the users of products and services, based on purchase, use, or other activities. The cash or cash equivalent are used here, such as e-check or regular check. The user'"'"'s (participant'"'"'s) authentication and fraud prevention are applied here. This is a way of advertisement for a product, service, or manufacturer, which encourages more use of a specific brand or product. It also relates to the cash award for viewing ads, based on click or other metrics. Here, for this system, the cash award is intended for the ad viewer, not the web site that displays the ad. It also applies to the rental or subscription models or situations.
