Method and apparatus for facilitating interaction between a radio frequency identification communications circuit in a mobile terminal

An apparatus comprising at least one processor and at least one memory including computer program code, the at least one memory and the computer program code configured to, with the at least one processor, cause the apparatus at least to:

• cause power to be provided to a redio frequency identification (RFID) communications circuit carried by a mobile terminal following activation of the NFC circuit;
• receive information from the RFID communications circuit;
• and
• cause an operation to be performed based upon the information received from the RFID communications circuit.

An apparatus comprising:

• an antenna;
• and
• a plurality of radio frequency identification (RFID) communications circuits switchably connected to the antenna, wherein each RFID communications circuit is configured to perform a respective function,
• wherein each of the RFID communications circuits is configured to receive power from a mobile terminal via the antenna following switchable connection of the respective RFID communications circuit to the antenna,
• wherein each of the RFID communications circuits is configured to provide information to the mobile terminal following switchable connection of the respective RFID communications circuit to the antenna, and
• wherein the apparatus is configured to be carried by a mobile terminal.
