ABSTRACT:
A magnetic stripe reader having an integrated signature scanner and electronic transaction system employing the same provide for simultaneous reading of magnetically encoded data and scanning of an authorized signature typically located above the magnetic stripe located on credit cards or other data cards, thus allowing a merchant or other operator to quickly and discretely compare a tendered signature with the authorized signature. In this manner, the signature may be verified without the need for physical retention of the card until a visual comparison of the signature can be made with the authorized signature on the card.
