10. A method of controlling a mobile terminal for a payment, the method comprising:
displaying a home screen on a touchscreen of the mobile terminal while in an unlocked state, and displaying a payment card information in response to receiving a gesture input while the home screen is displayed;
displaying a lock screen on the touchscreen while in a locked state;
while the locked screen is displayed in the locked state, keeping the mobile terminal in the locked state and displaying the payment card information in response to a first gesture input on the lock screen;
displaying the payment card information in response to a gesture input received while a display of the touchscreen is off;
receiving personal authentication information via a user input unit;
authenticating the received personal authentication information for the displayed payment card information;
transmitting payment information associated with the displayed payment card information to the external payment terminal during a predetermined time while the mobile terminal is located within a predetermined distance range from the external payment terminal, wherein the payment information is transmitted to the external payment terminal when the received personal authentication information is authenticated; and
displaying an indicator indicating completion of payment based on the transmitted payment information.
11. The method of claim 10 ,
further comprising displaying the home screen in response to a second gesture input received while the lock screen is displayed, wherein the second gesture input while the lock screen is displayed comprises a touch and drag input to the touchscreen while in the locked state.
12. The method of claim 10 ,
wherein the first gesture input comprises an initial touch to a location proximate to an edge of the touchscreen and a drag of the initial touch toward an inner portion of the touchscreen.
13. The method of claim 10 ,
wherein the first gesture input comprises an initial touch to a location proximate to a first edge of the touchscreen and a drag of the initial touch toward a second edge of the touchscreen opposite the first edge.
14. The method of claim 10 , wherein the gesture input while the home screen is displayed also comprises a touch and drag input to the touchscreen.
15. The method of claim 10 ,
further comprising a sensor configured to sense a movement of the mobile terminal, wherein the gesture input received while the display of the touchscreen is off comprises a movement of the mobile terminal sensed via the sensor.
16. The method of claim 10 , further comprising displaying indicators corresponding to at least a first payment method and a second payment method while the lock screen is displayed.
17. The method of claim 16 ,
wherein: the first gesture input while the lock screen is displayed comprises at least a directed drag input in a direction corresponding to the second payment method; and
