In this latest episode, USAT’s vice president of Marketing, Elyssa Steiner, talks with Ms. Bataglia about the importance of EMV.
“There are many advantages to EMV, particularly given that it offers more security and aims to reduce certain types of card fraud,” said Ms. Bataglia. “However, despite the widespread, global adoption of EMV payments and technology, there are still businesses that have yet to make the switch. It’s our goal to educate them and help them to understand the benefits to both the consumer and the business, by enabling EMV contactless solutions at the point-of-sale.”
Some key highlights:
- Why we need EMV and the advantages over magnetic stripe
- How EMV enables contactless payments, and offers a number of benefits that are important to merchants
- How contactless volume grew in 2020 for in-store transactions in the U.S.
