Portable device for managing reward points and method thereof

Abstract

The invention discloses a point management method. The method is applied to portable equipment with a safety assembly. The security component is used for storing points; the method comprises the following steps: 1, preparing a precursor; when the portable device is close to a calculator device to a default distance, the portable device and the calculator device can exchange a near field communication data exchange format (NDEF) message with each other, so that the portable device and the calculator device can exchange the NDEF message with each other. And running an application program on theportable equipment, executing various point management operations according to the reward content of the received NDEF message, and updating the points stored in the security component according to anoperation result. The invention also provides a portable device for point number management. According to the invention, the points can be collected directly through the portable device, the time consumed for collecting the physical points by a user is saved, the consumption of paper resources is saved, the loss of the physical points is avoided, the point information is stored in a reliable space, and the security is ensured.
