Abstract

A method for allowing on-line authorization in an access environment. The method includes receiving a request for access to a location at a gate access device from a user. After receiving the request for access to the location, an authorization request message is generated. The authorization request message includes an authorization to charge a predetermined amount of money. The authorization request message is then sent to an issuer for approval. An authorization response message is then received. The authorization response message indicates whether or not the charge is authorized or not authorized. If the authorization response message indicates that the authorization response message is authorized, then the user is allowed to access the location.
