A point of sale terminal (110) includes a product card printer (140), an unissued card storage bin (142), a user interface (120 or 122) and a computational circuit (130) that includes computer readable memory (132). The computational circuit (130) is operationally coupled to both the product card printer (140) and the user interface (120 or 122) and is in communication with the host (104). The computational circuit (130) is programmed to execute the following operational steps: receive encryption data from the host; generate a PIN number as a function of the encryption data, and instruct the product card printer (140) to print a product card back design on an unissued card to include the PIN number printed thereon, thereby generating a issuable product card. |
