Description

  The present invention relates to a card settlement system that subtracts a sales amount associated with a commercial transaction performed in a pay facility from an IC card.

  A card payment system that subtracts the sales amount associated with a commercial transaction performed in a pay facility installed in a facility from an IC card held by a related person such as a visitor of the facility or a staff of the facility is known. Paid facilities include vending machines, shops, cafeterias, and paid parking lots that are used by people involved in the facility. A related person can use an IC card possessed in advance to purchase goods at a store, receive food and drinks at a cafeteria, or use a parking lot. The sales amount associated with these commercial transactions is subtracted from the IC card via the IC card reader / writer provided in the pay facility.

  The IC card is charged with a predetermined amount in advance. When the amount charged to the IC card in the business transaction is insufficient, a message indicating insufficient balance is displayed on the IC card reader / writer. In the card settlement system, there is an advantage that a business transaction can be performed in a pay facility installed in the facility without the related person having cash. As an example of such a card payment system, when the amount charged to the IC card is insufficient, the IC card stores the identification data and the shortage amount, and the shortage amount is added to the sales amount in the next commercial transaction. There is a system for subtracting the sales amount and the shortage amount from the IC card (see Patent Document 1).

  When data other than the aggregation month is stored in the memory together with the data within the aggregation month, the computing device retrieves all the data from the memory, and then classifies the data into that within the aggregation month and other than that within the aggregation month. Based on the code number of the IC card 2, the data within the totaling month is classified for each patient possession card of the patient card 4, the medical facility staff card 5, the student card 6, and the other card 7.

  The calculation device counts the sales amount within the totaling month and totals the sales amount for each person possessed card (patient card 4, medical facility staff card 5, student card 6, other card 7) (first sales) Total amount) is calculated (S-9), and the total sales amount is multiplied by a predetermined profit rate for each person's possession card for the total sales amount (patient card 4, medical facility staff card 5, student card 6 , Other card 7) is calculated (S-10). The calculation device counts the number of usages of paid facilities within the total month, and calculates the total number of usages for each person's possession card (patient card 4, medical facility staff card 5, student card 6, and other card 7). Calculate (S-11).

  The calculation device charges the IC card 2 with a predetermined amount (S-12), classifies the charged amount by day or month, and stores it in the memory. The computing device retrieves the charge amount in the counting month from the memory on the closing date of the month (S-13). The calculation device calculates the total charge amount for each card possessed by the person concerned (patient card 4, medical facility staff card 5, student card 6, and other card 7) (S-14). The calculation device classifies the calculated total sales amount, fee, total number of times of use, and total charge amount for each person possessed card and stores them in the memory (S-15).

  In the calculation device, the total sales amount, fee, total number of uses, and total charge of paid equipment for each card possessed by the concerned person (patient card 4, medical facility staff card 5, student card 6, and other card 7) A monetary amount display command is output to the display, and a print command for the details is output to the printer. The display shows the total sales amount, fee, total usage count, and total charge amount for each card held by the related party (S-16), and the printer displays the total sales amount, fee, and total usage for each related party card. Details of the number of times and the total charge amount are printed (S-17).

  FIG. 4 is a diagram illustrating an example of the details of the total sales amount, the fee, the profit rate, the total number of uses, and the total charge amount printed through the printer. The details of FIG. 4 are calculated for the total sales amount, fee, total number of uses, and total charge amount for each participant's possession card in a certain month. The horizontal axis in the top column of the statement displays the total sales amount, commission, profit margin, total usage count, and total charge amount from the left, and the vertical axis in the left column of the statement shows the patient card and medical facility from the top Staff cards, student cards, other cards, and totals are displayed.

  In the details, the total sales amount of the card for the patient within the totaling month is 3,140,080 yen, the fee is 140,727 yen, the profit ratio with respect to the total sales amount is 4.48%, the total use count is 11,058 times, It turns out that the total charge amount is 1,102,000 yen, the total sales amount of the card for medical facility staff within the totaling month is 1,995,447 yen, the commission is 81,813 yen, the profit ratio to the total sales amount Is 4.10%, the total number of uses is 7,027, and the total charge is 907,000 yen. The total amount of student cards sold within the month is 31,266 yen, the commission is 1,187 yen, the profit ratio is 3.80%, the total number of usage is 110 times, and the total charge is 13,000. The total sales amount of other cards within the total month is 1,270,570 yen, the commission is 58,446 yen, the profit ratio with respect to the total sales amount is 4.60%, the total usage count is 4, It can be seen that the total charge amount is 659,000 yen 474 times.

  In the processing example by the first calculation means and the calculation means, the POS cash register 23 and the IC card settlement machine quickly calculate the total sales amount (first sales total amount), the fee, and the total number of times of use for each card possessed by the person concerned. Therefore, it is not necessary for the staff of the hospital 1 or the employees of the traders to manually calculate the total sales amount, the fee, and the total number of times of use, and labor and time can be greatly reduced. When the staff of the hospital 1 or the employee of the trader calculates the total sales amount, the fee, and the total number of times of use, a calculation error is likely to occur. However, since the POS cash register 23 and the IC card settlement machine calculate the total sales amount, the fee, and the total number of uses, it is possible to prevent calculation mistakes in those calculations. In addition, since the total sales amount and the total number of usages can be determined for each card possessed by a person concerned, the efficiency of each card possessed by a person concerned can be confirmed, and the IC for patients, hospital staff, students, visitors, etc. Sales of the card 2 can be predicted. In this processing example, the charge amount to the IC card 2 can be totaled, and the total charge amount for each person possessed card can be calculated. Charges to the IC card 2 by patients, hospital staff, students, visitors, etc. Amount can be predicted.

  The calculation device built in the POS register 23 and the IC card settlement machines 24 and 25 performs the following processing based on the second calculation means and the second output means. When the IC card 2 is inserted into the IC card reader / writer of the POS register 23 or the IC card 2 is inserted into the IC card settlement machines 24 and 25 in order to settle the IC card 2, the computing device reads the card from the IC card 2. The code number of the facility, the sales amount of the facility and the number of times of use are read (S-20), and it is determined whether the read sales amount and the number of times of use are data within the totaling month (current month). (S-21). If the sales amount and the number of uses are not data within the counting month, the calculation device ends the process without storing the sales amount and the number of uses in the memory, and reimburses the remaining amount of the IC card 2 to the related parties. The computing device checks at least one of the storage time and the identification number assigned to the sales amount and usage count, and whether the sales amount and usage count with the same storage time and identification number are already stored in the memory. Is determined (S-22). If the sales amount with the same storage time and identification number and the number of uses are already stored in the memory, the computing device ends the processing without storing the sales amount and the number of uses in the memory, and the IC card The remaining amount of 2 will be refunded to the parties concerned. If the sales amount or usage count is not data within the total month, or if the sales amount or usage count is duplicated, the computing device will use the code number, sales amount, and usage of the pay equipment stored in the IC card 2. A command to erase the number of times from the IC card 2 is output to the IC card reader / writer, and the IC card reader / writer erases the data stored in the IC card 2 (S-23).

  Note that the calculation device does not determine whether the sales amount or the number of uses is data within the counting month, and the sales amount within the counting month, the number of times used and the sales amount other than within the counting month are stored in the IC card 2. The number of uses can be stored in the memory. In this case, the memory of the calculation apparatus stores not only the sales amount and the number of uses within the counting month, but also the sales amount and the number of uses before or after the previous month or the month before the previous month.

  When the sales amount and the number of uses are within the aggregation month and are not duplicated data, the calculation device associates the sales amount and the number of uses with the code number of the IC card 2 and the code number of the equipment, and also by day or month Separately divided and stored in the memory (S-24). When the IC card 2 is settled on a date other than the closing date of the month, the sales amount and the number of uses are stored in the memory of the computing device. After storing the data, the computing device outputs to the IC card reader / writer a command to delete the code number, sales amount, and usage count of the pay equipment stored in the IC card 2 from the IC card 2, and the IC card reader / The writer erases those data stored in the IC card 2 (S-25). In addition, when the pay facility is allocated for each physical address area of the memory unit of the IC card 2, only the sales amount and the number of uses are deleted from the IC card 2.
