The inventive terminal ( 200 ), that may be realised in various embodiments, e.g. as access control terminal, pay telephone, point of sales terminal, ticket vending machine or automatic teller machine, comprises a touch panel display ( 100 ) and means for contactless communication with an IC-card ( 10 ) that is used to perform transactions requested by the holder of the IC-card ( 10 ). In order to allow communication between the IC-card ( 10 ) and the terminal ( 200 ), at least one antenna ( 112 ), designed to receive signals from and/or to send signals to the IC-card ( 10 ), is embedded in the touch panel display ( 100 ) so that the card reading and writing functionality is implemented in the touch panel display ( 100 ). |
