Patent attributes
Provided are systems and methods for securely providing an encryption key from a remote resource to a secure element. In one example, the method may include receiving transaction data for settling a payment transaction between a merchant and a cardholder of the computing device, reading a merchant encryption key stored in a secure element of the computing device and received from a remote computing service, dynamically generating, via the secure element, a cryptogram that remotely authenticates the transaction data using the merchant encryption key, and transmitting the dynamically generated cryptogram to a computing system associated with the merchant.
