Abstract

Provided are a system for service of providing franchise details using card transaction approval information and a method thereof. When payment information is received from a franchise terminal, an authentication server approves a transaction by referencing a subscriber DB, and a forwarding server forwards card transaction statement information including an icon for a guide to the franchise details to a subscriber terminal which has been previously registered for the subscriber approved by the authentication server. When the subscriber terminal selects the icon, a franchise information management server reads the franchise details including a location and an advertisement of a franchise from a franchise information DB and transmits the franchise details to the subscriber terminal via the forwarding server. Thus, a location, an address, a telephone number, homepage information, advertisement information, and the like of the franchise are delivered to a user in a credit card transaction, thereby preventing piracy of a credit card and enabling the user to deliver received franchise information to others or to use the information for a variety of services.
