Abstract (en)

[origin: WO0248978A2] The invention relates to a method and to a transaction system for transferring electronic value units between a user (10) and a subscriber (60, 62) which are interlinked via a data network (30) with a coordination center (40). The coordination center (40), upon the request of the user (10), provides the user with an identity information (118) characterizing the subscriber (60, 62), to which the user then adds a payment amount using a user terminal (12). Once the coordination center (40) has received the subscriber identity information confirmed by the user (10) and accompanied by a payment amount, it transmits an acknowledgement signal (130) regarding reception of the payment amount to the designated subscriber (60, 62). I the subscriber (60, 62) is not known to the coordination center (40), he is registered with the coordination center (40) using a code (54).
