Zusammenfassung:	A smart card reading apparatus (16) for use in a self-service terminal (10) where a user of the terminal wishes to transfer funds between an account stored on a first smart card (28) and an account stored on a second smart card (56). The first card is inserted via a card slot (18) into the card reading apparatus inside which the card is held in a first pair of guides (30,32). These are then moved so that a second pair of guides (52,54) can be positioned to receive the second smart card inserted into the card reading apparatus via the same slot (18). Contact blocks (120,136) are positioned to make contact with the two cards so that the transfer of funds can be implemented.
