Device and method for validation and processing of a transaction slip image

1 . A financial transaction validation system, comprising:

a first device including:

a scanner which scans a transaction slip of a transaction to generate a validation slip image;

a cash processing machine which processes cash during the transaction, the cash being a physical medium;

first processing circuitry configured to:

receive transaction information relating to the transaction;

receive the validation slip image corresponding to the transaction information;

generate a validation string corresponding to the validation slip image;

acquire validation information based on the cash processed during the transaction by the cash processing machine;

in accordance with a selected template out of a plurality of templates stored in a memory, generate a modified slip image which is a rendering of the validation string and the validation information on the validation slip image, wherein

each template comprises a validation information profile including font information and X and Y coordinates information regarding a location within the modified slip image, and

the modified slip image is generated by rendering graphically, via a rendering engine the validation string and the validation information onto the validation slip image by modifying pixel values according to the font information and the X and Y coordinates information; and

control a secure communication adapter to transfer automatically, to a database via a secure communication channel, the modified slip image in association with a transaction identifier corresponding to the transaction, wherein the transaction identifier indicates unique entity information and the database automatically stores the modified slip image in association with the transaction identifier; and
