Description
HYBRID VOUCHER
TECHNICAL FIELD
Hybrid voucher belongs to the field of methods, devices, and software solutions for recognizing the data presented printed or written characters or geometric figures (patterns) which contain code characters that were presented to record carriers, which are encoded and then transferred to an image source (one-dimensional or two-dimensional bar code) in reading using a device with a built-in image code reader, and it belongs to the field of encoding, decoding and converting one code to another.

TECHNICAL PROBLEM
The progress of technology, forms of communication, and the appearance of modern multifunctional devices for communications, have contributed to finding new, faster, more automated solutions for monitoring, control and use of customer accounts for the purpose of payment of goods and services, transfer funds from one account to another account and for recharging any amount (payment on account). Modern communication and transaction infrastructure that allows users to companies that sell goods and services (for example, mobile telephony providers) granting to its customers, a personalized accounts for automated purchase of goods and payment of services. This form of accounts also enables its increase by payments a certain, desired amounts. One form of funds payment to the account is by the purchase vouchers that contain information and procedures necessary to supplement the account. Specifically, voucher is containing a unique PIN code i.e. a string of alphanumeric characters that represents a certain amount. The user has to apply defined procedures and to send PIN code as the command to a transactional remote server that verifies and approves increase i.e. the supplement of accounts balance. Since the PIN code usually contains more characters and since the user must manually type-in the PIN code characters and the command to the transaction server using the communication devices keyboard, to what is quite a complicated process with the possibility of making a typographical error, it may arise a need for the repeating the entire procedure of data entry.
By hybrid voucher, according to the invention, the technical problem is solved by easier, faster and more secure automated enter of ΡΓΝ code, and it's sending to a transactional server, which after receiving the PIN code sent through a communication channel, processes the PIN code, and after confirmation of its accuracy and authenticity, allow the change to the users account balance.
It is well known that today a many users of a different services are buying the cards with prepaid amounts of money, which allow access via the communication channel to the user account stored in the financial institution database, where the account balance may be changed by its increase or decrease in amount that is prepaid and loaded on the card.
On the market, today are present the following modes for a changing the amount of money to the user's account (by its increase or decrease):
• By hidden or visible PIN number, whose typing in the mobile phone recharge the credit;
• e-top up recharge - electronic recharge via mobile device or equivalent terminal. Such a system and process for information processing, as well as device and application that are used in the data processing system is shown in the published European patent application EP 2023246 Al 11.02.2009.
• e-voucher - electronic voucher which use pre-loaded data base with secret numbers (PIN personal identification numbers) and from this base, at the users request, prints a number by number;
• internal system of service providers e.g. mobile operators in their stores directly enter the paid amount into the system to perform accounts recharge of a pre-paid credit;
• Use of ATM machines (bankomats) to enter the credits;
• QVoucher is the system of prepaid payment amount for the use of the Internet;
• QiwiSpot stations - are also a system of pre-paid amount for the internet payments;
• Recharging using a landline telephone with instructions on IVR (Interactive voice response);
The basic disadvantage of all of these aforementioned procedures is a need that the identifying information about the pre-paid amount and the user data must be entered with an alphanumeric terminal by typing the PIN number.
This has led to need for applying the two-dimensional codes - linear (the bar code) or QR code (Quick response code) that compared to some of the above mentioned ways of changing the amount in the account have the following advantages:
• Charging the account is much easier and faster;
• Charging process is automated
• Facilitated is the entry of coded data to persons which have a weak sight and to persons with disabilities (elderly and disabled);
• There is no possibility to errors that can occur when the coded data are manually entered;
• Reduced is the possibility for misuse;
• Discretion during the data entering (the user himself charge the account without disclosing any personal information);
Published patent application U.S. 2004/0020989 Al 05.02.2004 describes a device tor the two- dimensional code reading, a process and a program of two-dimensional code reading, as well a portable terminal and a digital camera;
In recent years, by progress in technology, there has occurred a large number of different solutions using different systems for displaying, encoding, storing and subsequently reading data and in the specialized literature, like in the patent documentation can be found a variety of solutions based on the use of procedures and devices enabling safe reading, verification and authentication of a document holders to whom is allowed changing the amount of money on the customer's account.
Solving the problems and disadvantages of known solutions, the hybrid vouchers according to this invention, are described
DISCLOSUREOF THE INVENTION
Hybrid voucher, according to the invention, represent a combination of alphanumeric PIN code that is presented in a two-dimensional QR bar code, by which is the recharging or reduction of the customers account faster, simplified and automated, because the user does not have to type a n-digits number (hidden number - PIN number) who is the carrier of a financial value, because the same information is included into QR/bar code, so that instead of manually typing numbers in the mobile phone, performed is taking a photograph and scanning QR/bar code with existing camera mobile phone. The invention also applies to procedures and programs for:
- encoding a vouchers PIN code used for the change of the users accounts balance into code image (onedimensional or twodimensional bar code) suitable for reading by device with built-in camera; and
- scanning the code image, automated decoding into original PIN code and communication to a transactional server, which after sent PIN code processing, carry out the balance modification of the users account i.e. recharge it or diminish the user accounts balance (amount balance).
QR/bar code scanning by camera is possible by software application installed in the camera. Using all the transmission channels that exist between service providers and users of mobile devices (USSD, SMS, IVR ...) performed is the transaction, recharging or the payment of an amount of money, to or from the user's account in a financial institution (bank) or an account in the service facility.
