Method and system for managing a multiplicity of credentials
First Claim
1. A wireless key device comprising:
- a wireless transceiver and antenna configured to communicate wirelessly with an access terminal;
an input device configured to receive user input;
an output device having a display; and
a processor configured to;
poll the access terminal via the wireless transceiver and antenna for an access terminal identification which uniquely identifies the access terminal;
identify a filter based on the access terminal identification;
select a subset of the plurality of digital credentials based on the filter;
select a first digital credential from the subset of the plurality of digital credentials; and
transmit the first single credential to the access terminal via the wireless transceiver and antenna.

Abstract
A wireless key device is configured to execute a digital credential management method to manage a plurality of digital credentials. According to this digital credential management method, the wireless key device polls an access terminal for an access terminal identification which uniquely identifies the access terminal. The wireless key device identifies a filter based on the access terminal identification, and selects a subset of the plurality of digital credentials based on the filter. The wireless key device renders a list of the subset of the plurality of digital credentials on a display, receives a user input selecting one of the subset of the plurality of digital credentials, and transmits the selected credential to the access terminal.
