Abstract
A management apparatus stores a usable or non-usable state representing whether a right is usable or non-usable by a user in a facility in which a service is provided by a service provider using a service providing apparatus. And, the management apparatus updates the use usable or non-usable state to a non-usable state in a case where a use request of the right is received and transmits the use request to a terminal apparatus. And, the management apparatus permits the use of the right to the user by updating the usable or non-usable state to a usable state in a case where a notification of satisfaction is received from the terminal apparatus or the service providing apparatus, the notification of satisfaction indicating that the user, who requests the use of the right in the use request, satisfies a use requirements of the right.
