`
`SYSTEM FOR PAYMENT DATA EXCHANGE AND PAYMENT TERMINAL DEVICE
`
`USED THEREIN
`
`The present invention relates to a system for financial
`transaction data (authentication, authorisation and payment
`data) exchange between a point of sale device, e.g. vending
`‘machine etc. and an authorisation centre (an entity
`responsible for authentication, authorisation and
`
`corresponding payment and settlement procedures of the
`transaction), and to a payment terminal device to be used in
`this system.
`
`the world and provides
`Mobile telephony is booming throughout
`many recently developed applications in data communication.
`One of the hottest new services is payment
`through mobile
`phone which is generally called "m-commerce". There are
`available m-commerce solutions, most of them are based on WAP
`(Wireless Application Protocol)
`technology which promises to
`bring all the benefits of internet to a mobile phone. Other
`solutions use calls to a special payment terminal,
`those calls
`being activated either from an authorisation centre or a
`subscriber or user. But there are severe obstacles preventing
`faster acceptance of m-commerce, especially in a non-internet
`domain, which are the costs of the known payment terminals
`with regard to their acquisition as well.as operating costs.
`Inter alia,
`this is due to the fact that each payment terminal
`has to include a fairly sophisticated communication interface
`which has to cover all the different, possible new and
`currently established standards of data communication in
`mobile telephone networks and phones.
`
`Therefore it is an object of the invention to provide a system
`and a payment
`terminal
`to be used in this system which is able
`to prevent
`the problems and costs arising from the different
`
`

`

`WO 02/33669
`
`PCT/IB00/01495
`
`mobile phone standards with regard to coupling a mobile phone
`
`to a payment terminal device.
`
`This object is solved by the system of claim 1 and by the
`
`payment
`
`terminal device of claim 8.
`
`Accordingly,
`
`the system of the invention for payment data
`
`exchange or communication has a payment
`terminal device for
`coupling to a point of sale device and to a mobile phone, an
`authorisation centre for coupling to a mobile voice network
`
`and to a financial information system, a mobile phone for
`coupling to the mobile voice network and to the payment
`
`terminal device, wherein payment data exchange is performed
`
`from the payment terminal device via the mobile phone, and the
`mobile voice network to the authorisation centre and, vice
`
`versa,
`
`from the authorisation centre via the mobile voice
`
`network and the mobile phone to the payment terminal device,
`wherein the payment data are transferred between the payment
`terminal device and the mobile phone using voice data
`
`information.
`
`The great advantage of the present invention is the transfer
`
`of payment data between the mobile phone and the payment
`terminal device using voice data information which is the only
`
`standard to be take into account by all phone makers and
`which,
`therefore, helps to reduce strongly the complexity of
`the communication interface in the payment terminal device and
`the costs connected thereto. Voice data information or voice
`
`information is the specific form of useful or wanted
`
`information which is known to be transferred and exchanged in
`the voice channel of the mobile voice network.
`
`The payment terminal device of the invention for coupling to a
`point of sale device, vending machine etc. and to a mobile
`
`phone comprises interface means for releasable coupling the
`payment
`terminal device to the mobile phone.

`
`

`

`WO 02/33669
`
`PCT/IB00/01495
`
`The telephone connection is established by the user from the
`
`phone of the user, so the costs of the payment procedure or
`
`the telephone call are directed to the account of the user.
`
`Depending on the agreed relationship between the user, owner
`
`of the payment
`
`terminal device and the owner of the point of
`
`sale device, vending machine etc.
`
`the cost can be directed
`
`also to the account of another participating party.
`
`In any
`
`case the additional costs for establishing a telephone
`
`connection on the side of the operator are avoided.
`
`The interface means of the payment terminal device comprises
`
`preferably coupling means for coupling to the mobile phone and
`
`a modem being coupled to the coupling means and to the
`
`processing means for converting voice data received from the
`
`authorisation centre by the mobile phone via the coupling
`
`means into data being sent to the processing means, and for
`
`converting data from the processing means into voice data
`
`prepared for coupling to the mobile phone via the coupling
`
`means. The data, encrypted or not, are thus transmitted
`
`through the mobile phone voice channel. The data modulation
`
`can either be DTMF or any other data modulation which can be
`
`transmitted through such a voice channel.
`
`the coupling means has an acoustic coupler for
`Preferably,
`transferring voice data information in the form of acoustic
`Signals to the mobile phone and vice versa, i.e.
`the voice
`
`data information is transferred as voice itself or voice as a
`
`carrier of information in the frequency band of human voice.
`
`Further, a distance between a microphone and a speaker of the
`
`acoustic coupler may be adjustable in order to adapt the
`
`acoustic coupler to different types of mobile phones. The
`
`acoustic coupler allows coupling of the payment terminal
`
`device to any type of mobile telephone which is Currently used
`
`and which might be used in the future without any adaptation
`
`3
`
`

`

`WO 02/33669
`
`PCT/IB00/01495
`
`of the different mobile phones themselves. Generally,
`
`the
`
`shape of the acoustic coupler should enable the mobile phone
`
`microphone to fit with the speaker and vice versa in a way
`
`that allows operability even in a noisy condition or
`
`environment.
`
`In preferred embodiments of the invention,
`
`there are several
`
`additional options for coupling of the payment
`
`terminal
`
`to the
`
`mobile phone.
`
`In the first option being called the wired option,
`
`the
`
`coupling means has electrical plug connector means for
`
`électrical coupling to a plug connector of the mobile phone in
`
`order to exchange information or voice data information in the
`
`form of electrical signals between the mobile phone and the
`
`coupling means. The plug connector means can have a plurality
`
`
`
`
`
`of different plug connectors for coupling to plug connectors
`
`of different types of correspondingly different types of
`
`mobile phones.
`
`The second option is IR communication (IR = infrared radiation
`
`or light) wherein the coupling means or interface means of the
`
`payment
`
`terminal comprises an IR interface for communication
`
`with a corresponding IR interface of the mobile phone in order
`to exchange information or voice data information in the form
`of infrared signals between the payment
`terminal and the
`mobile phone. This is applicable on all newest mobile phone
`
`models which have, for instance, an IrDA interface. This
`
`option enables higher data rates and shorter transaction time.
`
`The third option is RF communication (RF = radio frequency)
`
`wherein the coupling means or interface means of the payment
`
`terminal comprises a RF interface for communication with a
`
`corresponding RF interface of the mobile phone in order to
`
`exchange information or voice data information in the form of
`
`4
`
`

`

`WO 02/33669
`
`PCT/IB00/01495
`
`RF signals between the payment terminal and the mobile phone.
`
`BlueTooth, for instance,
`
`is a standard in this area, however
`
`other RF communication protocols are possible. The RF
`
`communication interface enables non contact transaction for
`
`highest user comfort.
`
`In a preferred embodiment,
`
`the payment terminal device has
`
`data processing means which comprises at least a communication
`
`processor having cryptographic capability in order to generate
`
`data or to establish a data communication with high security
`
`due to secure coding of the data. The cryptographic capability
`
`may be of different types, such as DES, RSA, etc.
`
`The payment terminal device of the invention can comprise data
`
`input means, such as at least one keyboard. The keyboard
`
`allows the user to select predefined services or to specify
`
`the amount for POS terminals.
`
`The payment
`
`terminal device can comprise a printer or built-in
`
`printer in order,
`
`for instance,
`
`to print a confirmation of the
`
`actual payment procedure if the users want any.
`
`The payment terminal device can have a display for showing the
`
`user, for instance,
`
`the different steps of the payment
`
`procedure or for giving him instructions on how to operate the
`payment terminal device.
`
`Further,
`
`the payment terminal device can comprise additional
`
`communication means, for instance a PSTN modem, an ISDN modem,
`
`cable modem or a GSM modem for coupling to the related
`
`networks in order to provide maintenance services etc.
`
`The payment
`
`terminal device can be equipped with an additional
`
`connection to another computer system, such as a POS computer
`
`system or a BOS computer system.

`
`The interface means 19 of the payment
`
`terminal device 10
`
`comprises a modem 12 and coupling means 20 for coupling the
`modem 12 to the mobile phone 14. The coupling means 20 may use

`
`To be able to use the system of the invention the user has to
`
`Own a mobile telephone 14 and the user has to set up a special
`
`account that belongs only to him in the authorisation centre
`
`1. The account set up is basically an agreement between the
`
`user and the authorisation centre 1, wherein both parties
`define the parameters of their co-operation. The parameters
`comprise one or more mobile phone numbers, e.g. SIM card
`
`numbers,
`
`the method of payment, e.g. money transfer, credit
`
`card, etc., optionally additional services which increase the
`
`security of both parties, e.g.
`transaction limits,
`security/authentication codes, etc., and optionally additional
`services which increase the flexibility of the user, e.g.
`multiple accounts, etc. The user could change the parameters
`of the agreement which are stored in the ‘subscribers database
`2 of the authorisation centre 1 through user support services
`of the authorisation centre 1,
`through Internet services, WAP
`and similar services. The authorisation centre can on request
`of the user or within the framework of its business policy
`assign to each user special identification code which is used
`
`not
`to reveal
`the mobile telephone number of the user to other
`involved parties and to grant
`the protection of the privacy of
`the user when participating in the system of invention.

`
`Next, a typical payment procedure is described if the
`
`inventive system of Fig.
`
`1 is used.
`
`In a first step,
`
`the user decides to make a purchase at a
`
`cashier or device using the payment terminal device 10. The
`
`user uses his mobile phone 14 to call the authorisation centre
`
`1 via the mobile voice network 5.
`
`In a second step the authorisation centre 1 uses the caller
`
`identity to establish and decide whether the caller is a
`
`registered user of the system. If the verification is not
`
`successful
`
`the authorisation centre 1 terminates the
`
`connection to the user or mobile phone calling.
`
`After the successful verification described in previous
`
`paragraph,
`
`the user is asked to input his
`
`security/authentication code, if the account parameters in the
`subscribers data base 2 require authentication of the user.
`
`The user inputs the code by means of a keypad of the mobile
`
`telephone 14.
`
`In the next step,
`
`the authorisation centre 1
`
`checks and compares the security/authentication code received
`
`from the mobile telephone 14 via the mobile voice network 5 to
`
`a security/authentication code stored in the subscribers data
`
`base 2. If the authentication is not successful (i.e.
`
`the
`
`entered code does not correspond to thecode in the database)
`the authorisation centre 1 terminates the connection. If the
`
`authentication is successful the authorisation centre 1
`
`instructs the user to put his mobile telephone onto the
`acoustic coupler of the coupling means 20 of the payment
`terminal device 10. The payment terminal device shows the user
`
`information, for instance, ona display, on how to put the
`mobile telephone onto the acoustic coupler.
`
`the payment terminal device 10 and the
`In the next step,
`authorisation centre 1 exchange the required transaction data
`
`9
`
`

`

`WO 02/33669
`
`PCT/IB00/01495
`
`or payment data via the voice channel established by the
`mobile telephone 14. The transaction data can be coded by
`
`means of cryptographic capability implemented in the
`
`processing means 11 on the side of the payment
`
`terminal device
`
`10 and in the communications interface 4
`
`in the authorisation
`
`centre 1. The processing means 11 controls the transaction
`
`data exchange on the side of the payment
`
`terminal device 10.
`
`In the next step,
`
`the authorisation centre 1 verifies if the
`
`transaction data correspond to the specifications on the
`
`(transaction limits...) and approves or rejects
`user’s account
`the transaction. If the transaction was approved by the
`authorisation centre 1,
`the payment terminal device 10 sends a
`signal or data generated by the processing means 11 via the
`
`connection 13 to the release mechanism or POS terminal,
`
`vending machine, etc.
`in order to release the paid goods or to
`approve a service being provided by these units or to display
`a visual approval if the sale is performed by a salesperson.
