In the preferred embodiment all transactions are approved at the local POS (toll gate, parking meter, checkout station, parking lot, pay phone, ATM, gas station, etc.) using a service provider identification number (SPIN) issued to the service provider owner each month for example. The local approved transactions are guaranteed by the web-site owners and the customers each have unique SPIN numbers that expire periodically such as each month. The web-site designs are designed to work most efficiently with all in one access devices such as, a wireless cell phone, a pager, or master PASS until that can directly activate proximity transaction units by delivering credit card, Smartcard, debit card, and or SPIN code data.
