CA 2236931

A financial information and transaction system utilizes wireless communication (20) in connection with portable terminals. In this system, a terminal (150) is connected to the financial institution via a wireless (102) or cellular telephone hook-up. Smart cards are utilized to verify authorization for transactions, thereby minimizing potential security problems which could otherwise result from use of a mobile terminal (150). Alternatively, a smart card is advantageously utilized not only for authorization, but also to maintain a secure record of available funds. The system not only provides the functionality of an ATM network, but also provides non-financial services, thereby forming an integrated system.

Système d'informations et de transactions financières mettant en oeuvre une communication radio (20) en relation avec des terminaux portables. Dans ce système, un terminal (150) est raccordé à une institution financière par l'intermédiaire d'une liaison téléphonique cellulaire ou radio (102). Des cartes à puce sont utilisées pour vérifier l'autorisation des transactions, ce qui réduit les problèmes potentiels de sécurité, afférents normalement à l'utilisation d'un terminal mobile (150). D'autre part, une carte à puce est utilisée avantageusement non seulement pour l'autorisation, mais également pour garder une trace fiable des avoirs disponibles. Le système n'offre pas seulement les fonctions d'automate de guichet en réseau, mais assure également des services non financiers, constituant ainsi un système intégré.
