FIELD: information technology.
SUBSTANCE: method involves: reading a first alternate code (LENcard) from a bank card; transmitting the LENcard to an authorisation server connected to an authorisation database; retrieving at least a next alternate code (LENcurrent) from the authorisation database; and comparing LENcard and LENcurrent. If the LENcard is not equal to the LENcurrent then, if the bank card is a new card, the method involves processing the bank card as a new card, otherwise the bank card is recognised as a fraudulent card. If the LENcard equals the LENcurrent, then the method involves generating the next alternate code (LENnew); writing the LENnew to the bank card in place of the LENcard; and writing the LENnew to the authorisation database in place of the LENcurrent.
EFFECT: high reliability of authenticating a bank card during financial transactions.
