Abstract
Techniques for enabling performance of a quality control function on the contactless interface while the contactless interface is disabled are provided. The techniques include implementing, on a dual-interface payment device, one or more security mechanisms, wherein the dual-interface payment device comprises a first interface and a second interface, using the one or more security mechanisms to prevent a subset of data corresponding to the first interface from being read using the second interface while allowing data corresponding to the second interface to be read using the first interface, and personalizing the dual-interface payment device and the one or more security mechanisms according to one or more requirements of an issuer of the dual-interface payment device.
