Abstract
An individual recognition system uses a mobile communication apparatus to more securely conduct financial data transactions. A call number stored in a mobile communications apparatus is read by a terminal unit and transmitted to a computer. The computer calls the mobile communications apparatus and requests a user to input a personal identification code. The personal identification code is transmitted from the mobile communications apparatus to the computer, so that the transmitted personal identification code is compared with a previously registered personal identification code for verification. As a result of verification, a registered person is confirmed. Then, a price of a purchase is input to the terminal unit and transmitted to the computer. Settlement for payment of the price of the purchase is carried out in a bank account.
