Festival Card Payment System

The Festival Card is a payment system for short term events. Merchants are supplied with smartcard payment terminals -Ingenico i7910 terminals. These take money off the smartcards in exchange for products and services. At the end of each day the transactions are sent via FTP transfer over GSM/GPRS link to an FTP server. The transactions are then processed and the money transferred from the smart card holding account to the appropriate merchants.
