1. A method for control and allocation of access rights with variable price, wherein a control computing device is used, which includes or has access to a database with information associated with a site comprising one or several sections, each of them with a certain number of places, the method comprising:
a) providing, by said control computing device, to a bidirectional interface accessible by potential users through computing terminals, on a first date, a first offer for an access right for a number of places in at least a first section of said site, including information on the number of places available for said first section, for said first offer, a recommended price and a period of time in which said first offer is valid, wherein the number of places offered in the first offer is less than a total capacity of the site;
b) receiving, by said control computer device, through said interface, from said computing terminals of the potential users, and during said period of time, a certain number of proposals with different prices in relation to said first offer, wherein the proposals received from each of the potential users are encrypted by a unique user identifier with a private key and a public key;
c) verifying, by the control computing device, that the proposals received from said computing terminals meet the condition of being greater than or equal to a certain minimum price and:
c1) applying a criterion of allocation of places to those proposals received that meet said condition, and indicating, through said interface, to the computing terminals of the potential users in which their proposal does not meet said condition, that the same is not acceptable, but that said potential users are allowed to send another proposal; and
c2) after the number of proposals received that meet said condition reaches or exceeds the number of places in said first offer, the control computing device automatically expands the number of places in the first section to accommodate the total number of proposals received that meet the condition, said expansion being carried out gradually taking into consideration a rate of reception of the proposals, and, after the first section has no more availability, assigns the proposals to at least a second section;
d) providing, by said control computing device to the bidirectional interface accessible by the potential users through said computing terminals, at the end of said period of the first offer, on a second date, at least one second offer for an access right in said at least one first section, including information on the number of places that remain available for said first section, in this second offer, a recommended price, an average closing price of the first offer and a period of time in which said second offer is valid; and
e) repeating steps b) and c) for said second offer and in relation to said second date, in case there are still places available in said first section, continuing providing other consecutive offers on other dates, for said first section performing steps b) and c) until the number of places for said first section is sold-out, so that a final price assigned to each potential user reflects a variable maximum price that said potential users are willing to propose,
f) configuring a screen of each computing terminal to display an allocated access right and a set of colors in a part of the screen not occupied by the allocated access right, wherein the allocated access right is configured as a QR code; and
g) synchronizing the set of colors of all computing terminals by means of a parallel application, wherein the screen of each computing terminal of all computing terminals displays a color of the set of colors, every certain period of time, synchronously with a screen of any other computing terminal of all computing terminals, so that the colors of screens of all computing terminals are synchronized.
