Talk to a PRO about your EMV debit or credit card
How do I use my EMV credit or debit card?
The EMV chip is a minicomputer that holds encrypted information, making it extremely difficult for the card to be copied or counterfeited. Rather than swiping your card, you will insert your chip card into a chip-enabled terminal to complete a transaction.
What are the security benefits of my chip-enhanced card?
Your new card comes with advanced security due to the chip technology that makes it difficult for a fraudster to counterfeit your card. A unique one-time code is generated behind-the-scenes that is needed for the transaction to be approved - a feature that is virtually impossible to replicate in a counterfeit card.

Where can I use my EMV card?
Use your chip card at the exact same merchants you do now, by inserting the card into terminals that are chip-enabled or swiping your card at merchant locations that have not yet switched to chip-enabled terminals. You can also continue to use your card as you did before for online and telephone payments.
In addition to the embedded microchip, your new card has a magnetic stripe on the back and you will be able to make purchases by swiping your card at merchants who have not yet switched to chip-enabled terminals.
