Zusammenfassung:Non-currency items such as lottery tickets, coupons and the like may be recognized and reconciled by a retail store and a financial institution without having to physically transmit the non-currency item to a sponsor of the non-currency item or the financial institution. Instead, a retail store or other organization may electronically transmit information regarding the non-currency item to the sponsor for confirmation of payment and to the financial institution for recognition. In some configurations, the financial institution may be configured to request confirmation of payment from the sponsor (i.e., instead of the retail store). Reconciliation of a cash handling device or a portion thereof (e.g., a cash register drawer) my take into account both non-currency items and currency items so that non-currency items do not have to be separately and/or manually reconciled.
