Client system for supporting (commercial) loyalty programmes via Internet. An accounting module provides processing of "bonus points" or other modern forms of credit transfer money or value units to be received or sent via a browser. By debiting or crediting services, a loyalty programme for Internet services can be realised. In order to prevent fraud, use is made of chip cards, which can be connected to the client PC by means of a card terminal. The use of a chip card as storage medium for electronic value units prevents fraud and provides moreover integration of Internet oriented payment traffic and conventional payment traffic: in both domains, use is made of the same chip card. Herewith value units which are saved via Internet actions can be spent, if desired, in normal shops, and conversely.
