Abstract
Embodiments of the invention are directed at an enhanced data interface (EDI) for contactless communications between a mobile application operating on a mobile device and an access device (e.g., contactless reader) that allows for enhanced verification between the mobile device and access device. One embodiment of the invention is directed to a method. The method comprises a mobile device receiving a request for available applets from an access device and providing a list of available applets including trusted applet identifiers and untrusted applet identifiers to the access device. The method further comprises receiving a selection of an untrusted applet identifier from the list and an entity identifier associated with the access device, validating that the access device is authorized to access credentials associated with the selected untrusted applet identifier using the entity identifier, and providing the credentials associated with the selected untrusted applet identifier to the access device.
