Driver's license and state issued ID card used to access store charge accounts and other business accounts

摘要

A system and methodology of accessing a person's charge account record at a store or person's account record at other businesses using the person's driver's license or state issued ID card in addition to the access card that may have been issued by the store or the business. The unique number on the driver's license or state issued ID card captured by swiping or scanning the driver's license or state issued ID card or possibly manually entering the number would be used to retrieve the customer's record for appropriate action—charge for goods or services purchased in the case of stores or retrieving and updating records for other business customers. The driver's license and state issued ID card gives the employee of the store or business the opportunity to validate the information on the store charge account or business record with the personal human readable information on the driver's license and state issued ID card. This feature also offers more security to the customers against identity fraud.
