If the teller did not know the account holder, the signature on the slip and the authorities would be checked against the signature card at the branch, before money was paid out. In the 1980s, banks adopted the black light signature system for passbooks, which enabled withdrawals to be made from passbooks at a branch other than the one where an account was opened, unless prior arrangements were made to transfer the signature card to the other branch. Under this system, the passbook's owner would sign in the back of the passbook in an invisible ink and the signing authorities would also be noted. At the paying branch, the signature on the withdrawal slip would be checked against the signature in the book, which required a special ultraviolet reader to read.<sup id="cite_ref-2" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-2"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>2<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> Today, the customer is more commonly verified by <a href="/wiki/Personal_identification_number" title="Personal identification number">PIN</a> and commonly through an <a href="/wiki/Automated_teller_machine" class="mw-redirect" title="Automated teller machine">automated teller machine</a>. </p> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading2"><h2 id="Direct_banking">Direct banking</h2><span class="mw-editsection"><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">[</span><a href="/w/index.php?title=Passbook&action=edit&section=5" title="Edit section: Direct banking"><span>edit</span></a><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">]</span></span></div> <link rel="mw-deduplicated-inline-style" href="mw-data:TemplateStyles:r1236090951"><div role="note" class="hatnote navigation-not-searchable">Main article: <a href="/wiki/Direct_bank" title="Direct bank">Direct bank</a></div> <p>For people who feel uneasy with <a href="/wiki/Telephone_banking" title="Telephone banking">telephone</a> or <a href="/wiki/Online_banking" title="Online banking">online banking</a>, the use of a passbook is an alternative to obtain, in real-time, the account activity without waiting for a <a href="/wiki/Bank_statement" title="Bank statement">bank statement</a>.
