PURPOSE: To pass a wicket only by a pass medium by providing a settlement control means which performs the rewrite control of amount information for the pass medium.
CONSTITUTION: A CPU 9 sends the information of insufficient amount to a display operating means 5, thereby, an insufficient amount can be displayed. When a user observing such display throws in coin or paper money equivalent to the insufficient amount from a coin throw-in port or a note throw-in port, the CPU 9 collates a thrown in amount with the insufficient amount. At this time, the CPU 9 performs the kind discrimination of an original ticket, and sends the amount information of the insufficient amount to a card processing part 15 when a discrimination result matches with the insufficient amount, and the rewrite control of the card processing part 15 is performed. Thereby, the passage of the wicket can be permitted without using a settlement ticket.
