Abstract

The present disclosure provides a method and device for switching an NFC card. The method can include determining a non-smart NFC card from a card set that includes smart NFC cards that are activated by default. The method can further include performing an activation operation on the non-smart NFC card, and calling the non-smart NFC card on which the activation operation has been completed to perform near-field communication interaction with a card reading device in a case of receiving response information of activation success, where the response information of activation success indicates that the non-smart NFC card and the smart NFC cards do not conflict. Through the technical solution of the present disclosure, the near-field communication interaction efficiency based on the NFC card can be improved.

Claims (48)

1. A method for switching NFC cards, comprising:

performing NFC communication with a card reading device to obtain scene information, and determining a first NFC card corresponding to the scene information from a card set, wherein the first NFC card is not included in a sub set of the card set, and the sub set comprises at least one second NFC card in an activated state;

performing an activation operation on the first NFC card;

in response to receiving response information of an activation success, calling the first NFC card on which the activation operation has been completed to perform near-field communication interaction with a card reading device, wherein the response information of activation success indicates that the first NFC card and the second NFC card do not conflict;

in response to receiving response information of an activation failure, determining a conflict card in the sub set that conflicts with the first NFC card;

recording information of the conflict card;

performing a deactivation operation on the conflict card;

performing the activation operation on the first NFC card once the conflict card is switched to an inactivated state; and

restoring the conflict card from the inactivated state to the activated state based on the recorded information, in a case of performing the deactivation operation on the first NFC card on which the activation operation has been completed.

2. The method according to claim 1 , further comprising:

performing a deactivation operation on the first NFC card on which the activation operation has been completed, in response to receiving at least one of the following instruction information for: card switching, exiting a current card swiping page, and completing the near field communication interaction.

3. The method according to claim 1 , wherein determining the first NFC card from the card set further comprises:

receiving a switching instruction from a user, and determining a card in the card set corresponding to the switching instruction; or

in a case where the number of failed communication interactions based on the second NFC card exceeds a threshold, according to a scene identification corresponding to the communication interaction, determining the NFC card corresponding to the scene identification and not included in a first sub set as the first NFC card.

4. The method according to claim 1 , wherein the second NFC card is included in a first sub set.

5. An electronic device, comprising:

a processor; and

a memory for storing executable instructions of the processor;

wherein the processor is configured to execute instructions to:

perform NFC communication with a card reading device to obtain scene information, and determine a first NFC card corresponding to the scene information from a card set, wherein the first NFC card is not included in a sub set of the card set, and the sub set comprises at least one second NFC card in an activated state;

perform an activation operation on the first NFC card;

in response to receiving response information of an activation success, call the first NFC card on which the activation operation has been completed to perform near-field communication interaction with a card reading device, wherein the response information of activation success indicates that the first NFC card and the second NFC card do not conflict;

in response to receiving response information of an activation failure, determine a conflict card in the sub set that conflicts with the first NFC card;

record information of the conflict card;

perform a deactivation operation on the conflict card;

perform the activation operation on the first NFC card once the conflict card is switched to an inactivated state; and

restore the conflict card from the inactivated state to the activated state based on the recorded information, in a case of performing the deactivation operation on the first NFC card on which the activation operation has been completed.

6. The electronic device according to claim 5 , wherein the processor is further configured to:

perform a deactivation operation on the first NFC card on which the activation operation has been completed, in response to receiving at least one of the following instruction information for: card switching, exiting a current card swiping page, and completing the near field communication interaction.

7. The electronic device according to claim 5 , wherein the processor is further configured to:

receive a switching instruction from a user, and determine a card in the card set corresponding to the switching instruction; or

in a case where the number of failed communication interactions based on the second NFC card exceeds a threshold, according to a scene identification corresponding to the communication interaction, determine the NFC card corresponding to the scene identification and not included in a first sub set as the first NFC card.

8. The electronic device according to claim 5 , wherein the second NFC card is included in a first sub set.

9. A non-transitory computer-readable storage medium having computer instructions stored thereon, wherein the instructions, when executed by a processor, causes the processor to:

perform NFC communication with a card reading device to obtain scene information, and determine a first NFC card corresponding to the scene information from a card set, wherein the first NFC card is not included in a sub set of the card set, and the sub set comprises at least one second NFC card in an activated state;

perform an activation operation on the first NFC card;

in response to receiving response information of an activation success, call the first NFC card on which the activation operation has been completed to perform near-field communication interaction with a card reading device, wherein the response information of the activation success indicates that the first NFC card and the second NFC card do not conflict;

in response to receiving response information of an activation failure, determine a conflict card in the sub set that conflicts with the first NFC card;

record information of the conflict card;

perform a deactivation operation on the conflict card;

perform the activation operation on the first NFC card once the conflict card is switched to an inactivated state; and

restore the conflict card from the inactivated state to the activated state based on the recorded information, in a case of performing the deactivation operation on the first NFC card on which the activation operation has been completed.

10. The non-transitory computer-readable storage medium according to claim 9 , wherein the processor is further configured to:

perform the deactivation operation on the first NFC card on which the activation operation has been completed, in response to receiving at least one of the following instruction information for: card switching, exiting a current card swiping page, and completing the near field communication interaction.

11. The non-transitory computer-readable storage medium according to claim 9 wherein the processor is further configured to:

receive a switching instruction from a user, and determine a card in the card set corresponding to the switching instruction; or

in a case where the number of failed communication interactions based on the second NFC card exceeds a threshold, according to a scene identification corresponding to the communication interaction, determine the NFC card corresponding to the scene identification and not comprised in a first sub set as the first NFC card.

12. The non-transitory computer-readable storage medium according to claim 9 , wherein the second NFC card is included in a first sub set.
