The piece of information to be confirmed is sent to the terminal device of the client, preferably a mobile station, by means of which the client digitally confirms the order made by him or her by signaling the confirmation received. The signed confirmation as well as the electronic identity information associated with the client is sent back to the payment service equipment (PS). The payment service equipment (PS) takes care of the verifying of the client"s identity, of the checking of the validity of the client"s payment card and of the eventual transmitting of the payment information to the payment system (BANK).</p> |
