Abstract

The invention relates to a locking system comprising an electrically actuable mobile lock and an activation means that comprises a virtual key associated with the lock and that serves, on an interaction with a first mobile end device, to transfer the virtual key to the first mobile end device and to store it therein, with the virtual key serving to establish an encrypted data communication connection between the first mobile end device and the lock to couple the first mobile end device to the lock and to authorize the first mobile end device to actuate the lock. The invention further deals with a method of coupling a mobile end device to an electrically actuable mobile lock for the purpose of actuating the lock by means of the mobile end device.
