ABSTRACT:
In a shop POS register terminal, a settlement request-generating unit generates settlement request information, which includes an amount of settlement. A request barcode is generated from the settlement request information, and the POS register terminal displays or prints the information. In a cell phone, the camera restores the settlement request information through the request barcode image. The amount of settlement is subtracted from a value charged to an IC chip. Settlement response information is generated, which includes the balance after settlement of the IC chip. Then a response barcode is generated from the settlement response information, and causes the cell phone to display the same. In the POS register terminal, the response barcode is read out to restore the settlement response information. Then an IC card settlement-ending unit confirms and causes the POS register terminal to print the receipt.
