- the invention is particularly advantageous raw user is not taxed when a call to the server.
- the verifier has a verifier that can read barcodes and establish communication with the time server.
- This device consists of the coupling of a barcode reader and a GSM terminal.
- the invention is intended for the general public and doi t get a very wide distribution ae fashion (tobacco shops, telecom shops, municipality, supermarkets, ••) and simple (providing a bank account number (RIE ) and proof of address against supply of the coupon which can be used immediately because the direct debit orders issued by the real-time server are processed a posteriori, 1969 so after recording ⁇ the driver's contact details)
