The US has finally ( well in theory…) converted to Chip cards. That means the cards and the terminals should now accept chip, including ATMs and outside gas pumps. Think about your daily purchases…do you still find merchant or ATM terminals that do not take Chip?

Will we ever stop fraud in cards??
