What is EMV?
EMV is a fraud-reducing technology that can help protect issuers, merchants and consumers against losses from the use of counterfeit and lost or stolen payment cards at the point-of-sale. EMV cards are embedded with a microprocessor or smart chip that interacts with the merchants point-of-sale device to make sure that the payment card is valid and with the use of a PIN or signature that it belongs to the person using the card. This kind of chip technology adds layers of security against fraud and is virtually impossible to duplicate.
EMV Technology Benefits
The EMV enabled payment card has successfully reduced face-to-face fraud around the world and is now making its way into your customers' wallets. With a "future proof" terminal or peripheral, you can accept EMV cards now. And because EMV technology makes payment cards virtually impossible to copy and a PIN or signature can verify the cardholders identity, merchants can significantly reduce the possibility of accepting counterfeit, lost or stolen cards.
Increases security and fraud protection to reduce some types of fraudulent transactions and charge-backs:
  • Reduces skimming at the point of sale
  • Enables increased PIN use for stronger cardholder verification
  • Helps prevent the use of counterfeit, lost and stolen cards

Helps merchants support the way cardholders will want to pay:
  • Meet expectations of cardholders who want more secure payment transactions
  • Accept foreign cards that are already EMV enabled
Merchants should start considering how EMV technology implementation will affect their businesses and look into options for accepting chip-based credit and debit cards.
