Claim Text:
1. A portable authentication system comprising: a reader for reading user data from a user identity document and for reading further user data from a token associated with a product or service, wherein the reader is arranged to read the user data and further user data substantially simultaneously; a display for displaying a field of view for an agent; wherein in response to the agent positioning the user identity document and token within the field of view, the reader is configured to read the user data from the user identity document and read the further user data from the token; and a processor for comparing the user data and further user data, wherein the processor is arranged to determine a match between the user data and further user data, if the user data corresponds to the further user data, and to determine a partial match between the user data and the further user data, based on whether an order of a firstname field and a surname field within the user data corresponds to an order of a firstname field and a surname field within the further user data or whether the user data corresponds to the further user data with exception of any non-matching characters within the user data or further user data which differ only by virtue of inclusion of an accent, and wherein the processor is further arranged to generate a partial match message for display, by the display, in the field of view if the partial match is determined between the user data and further user data.
