Abstract
The invention relates to a method for them multi-applicative operation of a card reader terminal (10), in which there is a link (11) with at least one electronic card (12), which may or may not have a memory and which is dedicated to the performance of an application. The card performs applicative operations and dialogues with the terminal (10) for making available inputs-outputs and capabilities of the terminal. The terminal becomes a slave, at the applicative level, with respect to said electronic card (12) in which the application is performed. The invention also relates to a card reader terminal.
