Application: Card management method, user terminal, server, card management system and storage medium (Patent ID: US20230237478A1)
The patent filed by China UnionPay Co Ltd describes a card management method, user terminal, server, card management system, and storage medium. The method involves sending a card binding message to a server, which includes card authentication information of a card to be bound. The server determines the card type and allocates dedicated card information, including a card transaction identifier. The dedicated card information, along with matching universal personalization data, is loaded onto a security element. This allows for transaction verification of the bound card using the dedicated card information and matching universal personalization data.
The method also includes additional features such as performing transaction verification for multiple cards with the same card type, setting the life state of the bound card to a valid state, generating or updating a mapping relationship between the dedicated card information, card type, and life state, synchronizing the life state and mapping relationship with the server, and sending card binding, deleting, and default card selection messages to the server.
The user terminal described in the patent includes a security element that stores first-type and second-type universal personalization data. It also includes a sending module to send the card binding message to the server, a receiving module to receive the card type and dedicated card information from the server, and a processing module to load the dedicated card information onto the security element. The processor executes computer program instructions stored in the memory to perform the card management method.
Overall, the patent describes a method and system for managing cards, including binding, verifying, and deleting cards, as well as setting default card selection. The invention aims to improve the security and efficiency of card management processes.
