<p>A system (10) for debit cards using a computerized assembly at the point of sale (54) for the cards connected to a remote clearinghouse (56). The computerized assembly receives and assembles a block of information required by the card purchaser (30). The card issuer (41) allows the purchaser to design the conditions for withdrawing the card's funds and the level of security required. The cards preferably include a digital storage member for saving the unique identification number associated with the card. More than one card can share the same identification number so they can access the same line of credit. Also, more than one personal identification number (PIN) can be issued with different conditions for reach. Software at the clearinghouse includes the ability of selectively transmitting transactional information to predetermined electronic mail addresses for real tracking of the card usage.</p> |
