ABSTRACT:
A validator for a card bearing a code readable by moving the card forward past a reader, particularly for use in a vendor to control vending, in which the card is transported forward from an entry position past the reader to an escrow position. If read as valid, the card is maintained in the escrow position pending the user's decision to have the card collected or to obtain return of his card. If the card is read as invalid, it is immediately fed back to the user. The card transport is such as to prevent a valid card from being pulled back out of the validator as by a string or tape attached to the card, and the validator is so constructed that it is easily opened for servicing, including removal of a card which may become jammed in the validator.
