Abstract

See full text

A lottery ticket sales system serves a multiplicity of facilities, each having a plurality of point-of-sale locations. Sales are expedited by cards customized for individual customers only with desired wager data in machine-readable form to identify repeated purchases. Terminals at point-of-sale locations in a facility are coupled to a facility play center for interfacing a remote central computer through telephone communications. Cards, void of individual data, are prepared by the play centers. Terminals receive cards for cooperation with a facility play center to formulate an order data pocket communicated to the central computer. Contemplated purchase data packets are supplied from the central computer for actuating source terminals to display a purchase value for approval or rejection. Approved purchases prompt the terminal to issue one or more lottery tickets with the recorded wager data.
