Abstract

See full text

A usage promotion method for use with a payment card data interchange system in which a computer examines card transaction data files to select transactions conforming to specified criteria. The computer eliminates arbitrarily all but a fraction of the selected transactions, selects winning transactions by using the bytes of the computer's system clock, and produces a verifiable list of winning transactions which, after manual verification, are used to create credits to the accounts of the card holders of the winning transactions.
