Abstract

A ticket management system is provided which can perform adjustments using a ticket to which non-updatable value information is assigned together with an electronic value, according to a payment form. The ticket management system includes an IC tag attached to a money ticket, a money ticket management server and a mobile terminal. The IC tag holds a money ticket ID for identifying the money ticket and reads the money ticket ID. The money ticket management server includes a storage unit, receives the money ticket ID from the mobile terminal and writes a valid money ticket ID to the storage unit. The mobile terminal includes a storage unit, acquires the money ticket ID held in the IC tag, transmits the acquired money ticket ID to the money ticket management server, and writes amount information of the money ticket identified by the valid money ticket ID to the storage unit.
