Embodiments for providing a timely indication that a wireless transaction has been completed, using a command-based timer solution, are provided. These embodiments include receiving a first command, associated with the wireless transaction, from a reader; initiating, using an applet, a first command-based timer when the first command is received; issuing, using the applet, an activity timeout signal when the first command-based timer expires before a second command is received from the reader; and providing an indication that the wireless transaction has been completed in response to the activity timeout signal. In some embodiments, the command-based timer solution may also include canceling, using the applet, the first command-based timer when the second command is received before the first command-based timer expires; initiating a second command-based timer when the second command is received; and issuing the activity timeout signal when that the second command-based timer expires.

Command-based timer for wireless transactions

The present disclosure includes an electronic device for processing a wireless transaction. The electronic device includes a wireless communication interface, a memory, and a processor configured to execute an applet. The wireless communication interface is configured to communicate with a transaction terminal. The memory is configured to store a first set of data for enabling a transaction between the electronic device and the transaction terminal, and a second set of data different from the first set of data. The applet is configured to receive a first request for conducting the transaction. The applet is configured to transmit a first message including or based on the first set of data. The applet is configured to receive a second request for retrieving at least part of the second set of data. The applet is configured to determine whether release of at least part of the second set of data has been authorized.
