Abstract

See full text

A credit settlement and ticketing terminal system comprises a terminal unit for issuing request information, and a central unit for performing a processing for ticketing a ticket or the like by referring to the issued request information and a file managed by the central unit, and for delivering results of the processing to the terminal unit to ticket or issue a desired ticket or the like. The central unit includes a processor for processing reservation and ticketing and a calculator for calculating charges for the reservation and ticketing. When the request information from the terminal unit is recognized as credit ticketing request information, the central unit settles the charges incurred by selling on credit, edits results of the credit settlement such that the results and a ticketing data are printed out on different sheets, and delivers as response information, the results and ticketing data to the terminal unit. The terminal unit includes an input device for inputting items of reservation, a card reader for identifying the principal of a reservation applicant, a secret number or password code entry device, means for setting a display indicating that the charges for sales should be settled on credit, a control device for transmitting, as the credit ticketing request information, the inputted information to the central unit upon a transmission starting operation and a printer for printing out a ticket or coupon and the results of credit settlement based on response information from the central unit.
