What does a Chip and PIN reader do?

A Chip and PIN reader is a device used to process card payments securely. It reads the embedded microchip on a credit or debit card and requires the user to enter a Personal Identification Number (PIN) for authentication.

What are advantages and disadvantages of chip readers and PIN pads?

Chip readers and PIN pads offer enhanced security compared to magnetic stripe cards, as they use encryption technology to protect cardholder data. They also provide a more seamless and efficient payment process for customers.

Additionally, some customers may find the process of inserting a chip card and entering a PIN to be slower and less convenient than simply swiping a card.


What is the purpose of Chip and PIN?

The purpose of Chip and PIN is to help credit or debit card transactions to be handled smoothly. Under this technology, the card is "swiped" through a magnetic reader, reading the magnetic strip on the card, or the clerk makes an imprint from the raised text of the card. After either process is completed, the clerk verifies the customer's signature with the signature on the back of the card.


What are chip and pin machines used for?

The simplest system - is on your ATM card. When you insert your card into an ATM - the system reads the data stored on the chip. It then matches that data with the central computer - so it knows what PIN should be entered. If you enter the correct PIN, you can proceed to withdraw cash - if the PIN is wrong - you get another two attempts, before the machine retains your card. Using a chip & PIN card in a shop to buy goods - the system is the same as an ATM. The difference is - if you fail to enter the correct PIN three times, the system simply disables your card - and you have to order a new one !
