ACCOMMODATING MULTIPLE USERS OF A SECURE CREDIT CARD

摘要

A secure credit card provides for secure transactions by users other than a holder of the secure credit card by providing storage for additional personal identification numbers (PINs) for authorized users. Transactions for authorized users may be controlled in accordance with individual user profiles stored in the secure credit card and which may be freely and flexibly established in regard to transaction amount, merchant restrictions and the like in response to recognition of a PIN corresponding to a holder of the secure credit card to whom the card is issued.
