NEAR FIELD COMMUNICATION TRANSACTIONS WITH INFORMATION DISPLAY
A method for transmitting data between a mobile communication device and a server. The method includes running a mobile application on the mobile communication device. The mobile application is hosted on the mobile communication device through the server as a Software as a Service (SaaS). The method further includes transmitting data associated with the mobile application between the mobile communication device and the server, in which transmission of the data between the mobile communication device and the server is monitored through the server.
1 . A method for conducting a near field communication transaction using a mobile device, the method comprising:
detecting a near field communication inductive trigger from a near field communication tag coupled to an entity when the mobile device is in close proximity to the near field communication tag, the near field communication tag configured for near field communications, wherein the near field communication inductive trigger is detected by a secure element coupled to the mobile device, the mobile device including a mobile device processor, a mobile device memory, and a mobile device radio transceiver configured for near field communications;
executing a secure element application stored in a secure element memory in a secure element, wherein the secure element application is executed by a secure element processor included in the secure element in response to the near field communication inductive trigger;
wherein information is presented on a mobile device display upon executing the secure element application, wherein the information relates to the entity coupled to the attached near field communication tag.
