Zusammenfassung:Disclosed is a contactless card, and a system in which the contactless card may be used. The contactless card may include a chip component, a communication interface, processing circuitry, and electromagnetic field sensing circuitry. The electromagnetic field sensing circuitry of the contactless card may be operable to provide orientation signals to the processing circuitry when the contactless card is in proximity to an oscillating electromagnetic field output by a card reader device. The processing circuitry of the contactless card may be operable to receive the orientation signals. An orientation of the contactless card with respect to the mobile device may be determined. An orientation indication signal may be generated based on the determined orientation, and a haptic indication, an audio indication, a visual indication or a combination directing movement of the contactless card in a particular direction may be output.
