An electronic device and method thereof are provided. The electronic device includes a communication circuit configured to communicate with an external device, a memory configured to store at least one card information, and a processor configured to electrically connect with the communication circuit and the memory. The processor is configured to receive a first request to verify whether it is possible to pay from the external device, send a response to the first request to the external device, and receive a second request, including transaction information associated with a payment, from the external device.

Electronic device and payment performance method using handoff thereof

An electronic device includes a communication circuitry, a processor electrically connected with the communication circuitry, a memory electrically connected with the processor. The memory stores instructions, when executed, causing the processor to connect the electronic device and a first network using the communication circuitry, determine a first user context among user contexts which are data associated with an operation state of the electronic device, and maintain a connection with the first network based on whether communication quality of the first network meets first communication quality corresponding to the determined first user context or switch from the first network to a second network different from the first network. Various other embodiments recognized from the specification are also possible.

Electronic device for selecting network

An electronic device is provided. The electronic device includes at least one communication module and a processor configured to control the at least one communication module. The processor is configured to verify properties of at least one communication network accessed by the electronic device through the at least one communication module, to determine an authentication scheme to be applied to a communication connection between the electronic device and an external electronic device and to establish the communication connection such that the external electronic device accesses the at least one communication network through the electronic device based on the authentication scheme.

Method for establishing communication connection between electronic devices and electronic device therefor

An electronic device is provided. The electronic device includes a transceiver that communicates with an external electronic device and at least one processor electrically connected with the transceiver. The processor is configured to obtain context information about an operation being performed at the electronic device, to generate identification information about a recommended operation associated with the operation being performed, based on the context information about the operation being performed and to send the identification information about the recommended operation to the external electronic device by using the transceiver.
