Multiple authentication and payment system and method using eSIM
View Patent ↗A multiple authentication and payment system and method using an embedded subscriber identification module (eSIM) are provided, in which one or more users integrate SIMs through software and perform SIM authentication and payment without physically changing SIMs when an eSIM is installed within a vehicle. The method includes detecting whether each smart device carried by at least one passenger contains a pre-registered eSIM and monitoring whether electronic payment occurs. When electronic payment occurs, a payment cost is determined for each passenger with respect to a payment cost of the electronic payment based on information regarding the pre-registered eSIM, and payment is performed according to the determined payment cost for each passenger.
1. A payment method of a vehicle using an embedded subscriber identification module (eSIM), comprising:
detecting, by a controller, whether a smart device carried by at least one passenger contains a pre-registered eSIM;
in response to detecting that the eSIM contained in the smart device is pre-registered, monitoring, by the controller, whether electronic payment occurs;
during the monitoring, when electronic payment occurs, determining, by the controller, a payment cost for each passenger with respect to a payment cost of the electronic payment based on information regarding the pre-registered eSIM; and
performing, by the controller, payment according to the determined payment cost for each passenger;
wherein, when the eSIM of a smart device is registered in conjunction with a vehicle, at least one of a range, an authorization, and a payment target of a server is selected;
wherein, when a smart device that does not contain a pre-registered eSIM is detected, outputting, by the controller, a one-time password and a vehicle identification number through a display of an audio video navigation (AVN) system or a head unit; and
receiving, by the controller, information regarding an eSIM saved in a payment/authentication server from the payment/authentication server based on the one-time password by the smart device that does not contain the pre-registered eSIM.
2. The method of claim 1 , wherein the determining of the payment cost for each passenger is performed by differently determining whether a passenger corresponding to the each smart device participates in payment according to a type of the electronic payment.
3. The method of claim 2 , wherein the information regarding the pre-registered eSIM includes information regarding whether payment participation is performed for each service.
4. The method of claim 3 , wherein the determining of the payment cost for each passenger includes:
dividing, by the controller, the payment cost by a number of smart devices as a participation target of the electronic payment according to whether payment participation is performed for each service among smart devices carried by the at least one passenger.
5. The method of claim 1 , wherein the detection of whether a smart device carried by at least one passenger contains a pre-registered eSIM is performed when the vehicle is turned on or a connected service application is executed in the vehicle.
6. A non-transitory computer readable recording medium having recorded thereon a program for executing the method of claim 1 .
7. A vehicle, comprising:
a first controller configured to:
detect whether a smart device carried by at least one passenger contains a pre-registered embedded subscriber identification module (eSIM);
monitor whether electronic payment occurs in response to detecting that the eSIM contained in the smart device is pre-registered; and
determine a payment cost for each passenger with respect to a payment cost of the electronic payment based on information regarding the pre-registered eSIM when electronic payment occurs while whether the electronic payment occurs is monitored; and
a second controller configured to perform payment according to the determined payment cost for each passenger;
wherein the first controller is configured to:
when the eSIM of a smart device is registered in conjunction with a vehicle, at least one of a range, an authorization, and a payment target of a server is selected;
output a one-time password and a vehicle identification number through a display of an audio video navigation (AVN) system or a head unit when a smart device that does not contain a pre-registered eSIM is detected; and
receive information regarding an eSIM saved in a payment/authentication server from the payment/authentication server based on the one-time password by the smart device that does not contain that pre-registered eSIM.
8. The vehicle of claim 7 , wherein the first controller is configured to differently determine whether a passenger corresponding to the each smart device participates in payment according to a type of the electronic payment.
9. The vehicle of claim 8 , wherein the information regarding the pre-registered eSIM includes information regarding whether payment participation is performed for each service.
10. The vehicle of claim 9 , wherein the first controller is configured to divide the payment cost by a number of smart devices as a participation target of the electronic payment according to whether payment participation is performed for each service among smart devices carried by the at least one passenger.
11. The vehicle of claim 7 , wherein the first controller is configured to detect whether a smart device carried by at least one passenger contains a pre-registered eSIM when the vehicle is turned on or a connected service application is executed in the vehicle.
