Patent attributes
Systems, apparatuses, computer-readable media, and methods for activating a contactless card. A server may transmit, to a web browser on a client device, a web page. The server may receive, from the web browser, a request to activate a contactless card, the request including a cryptogram. The server may decrypt the cryptogram based on a key associated with the contactless card. The server may transition, based on the decryption of the cryptogram, the contactless card from an inactive payment state to an active payment state. The server may transmit, to the web page and based on the transition of the contactless card from the inactivated payment state to the activated payment state, an indication to activate a payment applet of the contactless card.
