Abstract

L'invention concerne un système de stockage permettant d'effectuer des paiements de facture depuis un terminal de crédit dans un magasin. Un utilisateur possède une carte de stockage (50) approvisionnée au préalable. Cette carte est glissée dans un dispositif (204) de lecture de carte d'un terminal normal installé dans un magasin membre (104) de carte de crédit. Cette carte présente cependant un schéma de numérotation conçu pour que le numéro de la carte soit différent de celui d'une carte de crédit normale. Lors d'un paiement, l'utilisateur paie en espèces et fait lire la carte de stockage par le système de stockage. Le terminal (206) transmet les données de paiement par l'intermédiaire du réseau (102) de carte de crédit. Lorsqu'un serveur (106) d'organisation de règlement reçoit une transaction concernant la carte de stockage, ce même serveur (106) en avise un serveur (504) d'organisation mandataire de stockage. L'organisation mandataire de stockage exécute le traitement, l'organisation de stockage faisant office de fournisseur de service.
