PAY SERVICE OFFERING SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR OFFERING PAY SERVICE USING PERSONAL IDENTIFICATION NUMBER

摘要

A paid service providing system and a paid service providing method using a PIN are provided to input the PIN conveniently through a remote controller to which a bar code reader function is added. A paid service providing system and a paid service providing method using a PIN(Personal Identification Number) includes a service server(10), an authentication server(20), a set top box, and a remote controller(50). The authentication server performs accounting required for the authentication of the PIN and the use of paid service contents. The set top box requests the paid service contents to the service server and replies about an authentication request from the certificate server with the PIN. The remote controller reads a bar code from a PIN card(90), of which the PIN is recorded in the bar code, transmits the bar code to the set top box.
