Abstract

The inventive system for recharging prepaid mobile telephones from telephone booths comprises a central recharging unit (UCR) which is connected to telephone booths, telephone operators and credit and debit card payment gateways. The UCR is provided with means for registering recharging requests for mobile telephones made from telephone booths in order to attend to said requests. The inventive method for recharging a prepaid mobile telephone consists of various steps. In a first step, the mobile telephone is identified as requesting a recharge, in addition to the desired extent of said recharge. In a second step, effective payment of the desired recharge is monitored via the payment means existing in the telephone booth. Finally, the actual recharging of the mobile telephone is managed by the telephone operators.
