Abstract

L'invention concerne un procédé et un appareil permettant d'effectuer des opérations de paiement automatisées pour des achats au détail et des paiements de factures. Un code d'identification est numérisé à la réception des commandes de détail par le client qui identifie la commande et le montant des paiements requis. Le client choisit, au moyen d'un écran tactile (25), la ou les forme(s) de paiement désirée(s) puis effectue le paiement requis en utilisant un accepteur de coupons (5), un accepteur de papier-monnaie (6), un accepteur d'espèces (9), un accepteur de chèques (15), un accepteur de carte de crédit/débit/EBT (14), un accepteur de carte biométrique (13) ou un accepteur de carte de données (4). La vérification de l'identité destinée à empêcher les contrefaçons peut s'effectuer au moyen d'un accepteur biométrique (12) qui vérifie l'empreinte digitale ou autres caractéristiques biométriques des clients.
