Abstract
An IC card is issued from a retail trade to a consumer. The consumer withdraws a necessary money amount from an own bank account and stores into the issued IC card. At the same time, the same money amount as the withdrawal money amount of the consumer is transferred to a bank account of the retail trade. Further, when the consumer buys goods from the retail trade or receives a presentation of a service, a requested money amount is paid by using the IC card.
