A method and apparatus for automated payment transactions for retail purchases and bill payments. An identifying code on the receipt for a retail order is scanned by the customer identifying the order and the required payment amount. The customer, through a touch monitor (25), selects the form or forms of payment desired and then makes the required payment through the use of a coupon acceptor (5), a currency acceptor (6), a coin acceptor (9), a check acceptor (15), a credit card/debit card/EBT card acceptor (14), a biometric card acceptor (13) or a datacard acceptor (4). Identification verification for fraud prevention may be accomplished by a biometric acceptor (12), which may verify the customers fingerprint or other biometric characteristic.
