CONSTITUTION:The card offered by a customer is inserted in the card insertion part of the host processor and the amount of the advance deposite is inputted to an amount input part 5a. The recording of the amount to be paid, its display and the printing and issuing of a receipt are executed by operating a start key 5c. The processor, in parallel with the writing in the card, outputs the data of the user's code and the amount of advance deposite to a summing device 26 through a read control circuit 2c and an output control circuit 2b.
