When seller identification information and deal information presented by a seller
are read in by a sensor, and authentication information is read in by an authentication
information read-in device, a mobile terminal transmits the information and the
purchaser information to a settlement computer. The settlement computer authenticates
by the purchaser information and the authentication information, and if succeeding
in authenticating, the settlement computer carries out the settlement, and transmits
a settlement completion notice to the mobile terminal and the seller's apparatus.
