Method and system for ordering, loading and using access tickets
DCFirst Claim
1. A method for ordering, loading, and using admission tickets for access to access-controlled service devices, in which method admission tickets are stored in a memory module of a mobile communications terminal, in which method data are exchanged between the memory module and a reading device of a respective service device by a contactless interface, in which method a decision about access authorization of the user of the mobile communications terminal is made taking into account ticket information included in the admission ticket, and in which method, in accordance with the decision made, access of the user to the respective service device is granted or denied by an access device connected to the reading device, comprising:
- ordering at least one admission ticket from a reservation center through transmission of order data by an order channel, of various possible order channels, to the reservation center, the order data including a call number of the mobile communications terminal; and
transmitting the ordered admission ticket by a mobile network to that mobile communications terminal, to which the call number included in the order data is assigned.

Abstract
A method and system for ordering, loading, and using admission tickets for access to access-controlled service devices, in which admission tickets are ordered from a reservation center through transmission of order data by an order channel. The order data includes the call number of a mobile communications terminal to which the ordered admission tickets are transmitted by a mobile network and are stored there in a memory module. The data exchange between this memory module and a reading device of the service device takes place over a contactless interface. Decisions about the access authorization of the user of the communications terminal are made, for example, in the reading device or in the communications terminal, taking into account the ticket information contained in the admission ticket, for example, limited to a digitally signed ticket number or with indications about the respective service device. And, in accordance with the decision, access to the service device is given or denied to the user through an access device connected to the reading device.

12. A system for ordering, loading, and using admission tickets, which system includes a mobile network in which a multiplicity of users are able to communicate by mobile communications terminals, and to which mobile network at least one reservation center is connected, which system includes access-controlled service devices, for the access to which service devices the admission tickets are used, the service devices being provided with reading devices which include transceivers for exchanging of data by a contactless interface, the mobile communications terminals each including a loading module, which loading module stores received admission tickets in a memory module of the respective mobile communications terminal, the mobile communications terminals each including a communications module that exchanges data between the memory module and one of the reading devices by a transceiver by the contactless interface, which system includes decision-making modules, which decision-making modules make decisions about the access authorization of the user of one of the mobile communications terminals taking into account ticket information included in the admission tickets, and the reading devices being connected to access devices, which, in accordance with the decision made, grant or deny the user access to one of the service devices, wherein
the reservation center includes an ordering module which receives orders, by various order channels, with order data, for admission tickets, the order data comprising the call number of one of the mobile communications terminals, and the reservation center includes a transmission module which transmits ordered admission tickets, by a mobile network, to that mobile communications terminal to which the call number included in the order data is assigned.
