To provide an issuing function of a non-contact type IC medium, to dispense with a conveying means of the non-contact type IC medium, to reduce the number of components, to simplify the structure, and to thin the device.
A non-contact type IC medium Z inputted from a medium input port 4 rolls through a medium processing passage 10 radially, is temporarily locked by a first locking means 17, and information-processed. As the result of the information processing, the used medium Z required to be returned is rolled through a medium return passage 20 radially and is returned from a medium return port 5. The used medium Z that is not required to be returned is rolled radially and stored in a medium storage port 27. In issuing mediums, the media Z are radially rolled and supplied one by one from a medium supply passage 30 to the medium processing passage 10. The supplied media Z are temporarily locked by the first locking means 17, information-processed, rolled through the medium return passage 20 radially, and issued from the medium return port 5.
