Zusammenfassung:An electronic payment device and methods of its operation are disclosed. The payment device has a secure element for storing payment tokens, each associated with a payment card; an input interface that enables a user to select from among the payment cards; a display interface; and a processor. In response to a user selection of one of the payment cards by way of the input interface, a descriptor of the selected payment card is displayed by way of the display interface; and an unconsumed one of the payment tokens associated with the selected payment card is activated to prepare the payment card device for effecting payment using the selected payment card, thereby consuming the payment token. The payment device also includes a wireless communication interface for receiving additional payment tokens, thereby replenishing the payment tokens.
