Abstract

An authorization system (10) includes a reader (1) for a reader-card interaction (92) with a card (2), and a logic module configured to assign the reader (1) and the card (2) to each other and to make operable the reader-card interaction (92) based on authorization data comprising reader data and card data. The logic module is further configured to read via a non-contact interface (12.1) device data from an authorization storage device (5) and to assign the reader (1) to the card (2) based on the device data for making operable the reader-card interaction (92). The authorization storage device (5) is arranged spaced apart from the non-contact interface (12.1) at an essentially fixed distance (9), for example during the reader-device interaction (95). Using the device data makes it possible to enable efficiently the reader-card interaction (92) in case the reader data does not match the card data, for example.
