摘要： In a system and method for securely storing and controlling the dispensing of a payout, the system includes a payout dispenser (Fig. 1, 14) for securely storing and dispensing a payout, and a terminal (Fig. 1, 16) for controlling the dispensing of the payout and for interfacing with an attendant in connection with the payout. The system further includes a network (Fig. 1, 24) for interconnecting the payout dispenser and the terminal. The system may also include a device for indicating a payout payable responsive to the input of a person to whom the payout is payable, wherein the payout indicating device may be connected to the payout dispenser and the terminal by a network. The system may further include a device for enabling the dispensing of a payout breakage amount which is the difference between the payout in a payout dispenser denomination and the payment to be paid out. The system may still further include a central terminal (Fig. 1, 66) for centrally controlling the dispensing of payouts at a plurality of local stations to which the central terminal may be networked.
