  • This invention relates to the problem of small transactions and mini payments made by generic users on computerised communication networks, such as, for example the telephone network.
  • the invention was developed with particular focus on the need of the user to access the data made available by "added value" telephonic services via computer.
  • Another problem relates to the fact that the aforesaid media of payment presuppose the need to access and/or have access to specific payment tools, which may vary from country to country.
  • Another problem relates to the fact that access to the Internet is subjected to the intermediation of a Provider or computerised network manager.

  • the connection between the users 1, 2, ..., n and the system 10 is made according to the normal connection criteria in use in computer communication networks, whereas this is used in its most general meaning.
  • the respective lines LI, L2, ..., Ln used for the connection can be the normal lines of a telephone network, which can be either traditional or advanced (for example, ISDN).
  • a user equipped with a personal computer 11 and respective modem 12 or similar device such as, for example, a "Minitel" terminal communicating with system 10, can connect to the system 10 via a data line. It is, consequently, clear that the type and quantity of data which each user can receive from system 10 is correlated to the capacity of communication of the user's system.

It may consists of, for example, an interface used to manage the professional "Audiotel" services in the telephone networks.
  • the network interface 13 is used to put the user in contact with a data transmission system 14 in which the users choose the medium of payment and/or type of service which the they intend to purchase beforehand and display on suitable downloading progress bar of the status of the payment download or downloads predefined by the connection time associated to a timing module 15 (which can be implemented with the respective software or managing systems) which cuts off the call when the predefined timeout is reached.
