An electronic device includes a communication circuit that communicates with a server for issuing a mobile card, a secure element that stores the mobile card, a memory, and a processor that is electrically connected to the communication circuit, the secure element, and the memory, wherein the processor receives personal data required for authentication of a user corresponding to the mobile card and card data required for payment by the mobile card through the communication circuit from the server when the mobile card is provisioned, and stores, in the secure element, backup data including the personal data and the card data for backing up the mobile card.

Electronic device for supporting backup and reinstallation of mobile card

An electronic device comprises: a housing; a touchscreen display exposed through a first portion of the housing; at least one connecting member connected to a second portion of the housing; at least one near distance wireless communication circuit positioned in the housing; a hardware secure element configured to store security information; a processor electrically connected to the touchscreen display, the at least one near distance wireless communication circuit, and the hardware secure element and positioned in the housing; and a memory electrically connected to the processor and positioned in the housing. The memory stores a first operating system (OS) including a user interface for a payment application and further stores a first application programming interface (API) for permitting access to the hardware secure element. When instructions stored by the memory are executed, the instructions cause the processor to: wirelessly pair with an external electronic device by using the at least one near distance wireless communication circuit; receive meta data on a card from the external electronic device through the at least one near distance wireless communication circuit; receive data on a plurality of payment cards from the external electronic device through the at least one near distance wireless communication circuit; store the data in the hardware secure element without installing other application programs related to the data; display, on the touchscreen display, the user interface for listing the plurality of accessed payment cards by using the meta data through the first API; receive a user input for selecting one of the plurality of payment cards through the touchscreen display; and transmit data on the basis of the determined payment card by using the at least one near distance wireless communication circuit. The at least one connecting member has a shape that encompasses a user's wrist. Additional various embodiments are possible.
