  • Publication number: 20240346471
    Abstract: Methods, systems and apparatus are provided for facilitating financial transactions using an IC type financial card presented at a terminal. A requested transaction for monetary value is processed via a first transaction type. If the transaction is successful, monetary value (such as cash or a monetary value ticket or receipt) is dispensed to the user. If unsuccessful, the card is not ejected and the transaction is processed via a second transaction type. The first transaction type might be a PIN based ATM or ticket transaction and the second transaction type might be a signature based transaction.
