Video call mediating apparatus, method and computer readable recording medium thereof

1. A video call mediating method comprising:

connecting a plurality of terminals to a video call platform;

computing a number of users of a first gender and a number of users of a second gender from among users of the plurality of terminals connected to the video call platform in order to be provided with a video call service;

computing a first value that is a ratio of the number of the users of the second gender to the number of the users of the first gender; and

transmitting an item that is usable in the video call service to terminals of at least some of the users of the first gender in response to the computed ratio.

2. The video call mediating method of claim 1 ,

wherein the transmitting of the item comprises:

comparing the computed first value and a preset second value; and

transmitting the item if the first value is greater than or equal to the second value.

3. The video call mediating method of claim 1 ,

wherein the item enables a terminal to establish a video call session with a terminal of an opposite gender user.

4. The video call mediating method of claim 1 ,

wherein the transmitting of the item comprises transmitting the item to terminals of users of the first gender, who do not have a purchasing history in the video call platform.

5. The video call mediating method of claim 4 ,

wherein the transmitting of the item comprises:

randomly selecting some of the users of the first gender not having the purchasing history; and

transmitting the item to terminals of the selected users.

6. The video call mediating method of claim 1 , further comprising:

computing a number of users of the first gender having definite demand for an opposite gender user; and

computing a third value that is a ratio of the number of the users of the first gender having definite demand to a number of entire users of the first gender, and

wherein the transmitting of the item comprises preventing the item from being transmitted if the computed third value is greater than or equal to a preset fourth value.

7. The video call mediating method of claim 6 ,

wherein the users of the first gender having definite demand is a user having 100% probability of being matched with an opposite gender user in all video call sessions.

8. The video call mediating method of claim 1 ,

wherein the video call platform establishes a video call session between two terminals randomly selected from among the plurality of terminals.

9. The video call mediating method of claim 1 ,

wherein the transmitting of the item further comprises transmitting the item to at least some of terminals of users of the first gender not connected to the video call platform.

10. A computer readable recording medium having recorded thereon a computer-readable program for executing the method of claim 1 .

11. An image call mediating apparatus comprising:

a database configured to store user information of a user subscribing to a video call service;

a processor; and

a memory configured to store instructions that are executable by the processor,

wherein the processor, by executing the instructions, computes a number of users of a first gender and a number of users of a second gender from among users of a plurality of terminals connected to a video call platform in order to be provided with the video call service, computes a first value that is a ratio of the number of the users of the second gender to the number of the users of the first gender, and transmits an item that is usable in the video call service to terminals of at least some of the users of the first gender in response to the computed ratio.

12. The video call mediating apparatus of claim 11 ,

wherein the processor compares the computed first value and a preset second value, and if the first value is greater than or equal to the second value, transmits the item.

13. The video call mediating apparatus of claim 11 ,

wherein the item enables a terminal to establish a video call session with a terminal of an opposite gender user.

14. The video call mediating apparatus of claim 11 ,

wherein the processor transmits the item to terminals of users of the first gender, who do not have a purchasing history in the video call platform.

15. The video call mediating apparatus of claim 14 ,

wherein the processor randomly selects some of the users of the first gender not having the purchasing history and transmits the item to terminals of the selected users.

16. The video call mediating apparatus of claim 11 ,

wherein the processor further computes a number of users of the first gender having definite demand for an opposite gender user and a third value that is a ratio of the number of the users of the first gender having definite demand to a number of entire users of the first gender, and prevents the item from being transmitted if the computed third value is greater than or equal to a preset fourth value.

17. The video call mediating apparatus of claim 16 ,

wherein the users of the first gender having definite demand is a user who has 100% probability of being matched with an opposite gender user in all video call sessions.

18. The video call mediating apparatus of claim 11 , wherein the processor establishes a video call session between two terminals selected from among the plurality of terminals.

19. The video call mediating apparatus of claim 11 ,

wherein the processor further transmits the item to at least some of terminals of users of the first gender not connected to the video call platform.
