Why do credit cards have a magnetic stripe on the back
A credit card is a piece of plastic with a strip of magnetic information on it. When this strip is exposed to a strong magnetic field, like in an MRI, PET scan, or CAT scan it can get erased because the magnetic field removes the magnetic information.

If you have ever looked at a plastic credit card, when you turn it over so that you are looking at the back (where the box is for you to sign it) you will find a brown/gray stripe about a centimeter wide that runs across the entire width of the card. This is a magnetic strip. It is made of very finely ground up Iron particles in a glue covered by a thin film of plastic. When a strong magnetic field is applied to the strip it is possible to magnetize areas of the strip in a pattern. The pattern contains information about what the card can be used for and who it can be used by.
The magnetic strip contains data relating to the Account number, Branch number & Sort code of the bank where the account is held.
The data stored on a credit or debit card is stored not only in the metallic chip - but also on a magnetic strip on the rear of the card. Magnetic card readers read the data from the strip on the card, instead of the embedded chip.
