    a crypto-table of individual table-values externally preprogrammed into the payment card and dependent on personalization information;

    a user display disposed on the payment card in said dynamic part of the PAN, and providing an electronic visual output for a selected table-value from said crypto-table;

    an electronic trigger to select a next table-value from said crypto-table for the user display;

    a timer connected to the electronic trigger, and providing a limit on the frequency at which said new next table-value from said crypto-table can be retrieved; and

    a payment infrastructure connected through said merchant and providing for financial transaction authorizations based at least on the validity of said dynamic and static parts of the PAN, for generating and preprogramming crypto-table and table-values into the payment card according to a cryptogram generation process that is not included in the payment card.
