EMV Payment
Here is how Visa explains the liability shift:
Credit Card Payment Transaction Scenarios | |
---|---|
Mag stripe card @ mag stripe terminal | Merchant generally not liable |
Chip card @ mag stripe only terminal | Merchant generally liable – issuer has upgraded cards to EMV and merchant has not invested in upgrading |
Chip card @ chip-enabled terminal | Merchant not liable as an EMV card was used at an EMV terminal. |
