Chip Technology for your Visa Cards

Chip card benefits

Your NBD credit and debit cards have chip technology that make them more secure and easier to use worldwide. Benefits include:

  • Greater protection from fraud
    The microchip embedded in your card encrypts your data, providing enhanced security against counterfeiting when used at a chip-enabled terminal
  • Easy to use at home or internationally
    Less hassle using your chip card overseas! The chip technology is the global standard and is currently used in over 80 countries.
  • Acceptable at non-chip-enabled card terminals
    Your new card has the embedded chip as well as a magnetic stripe. If a store or merchant has not upgraded to chip technology, you will use your card as you did previously by swiping the magnetic stripe

Using a chip-enabled ATM

  1. Insert your card (chip side first). Do not remove it until prompted by the ATM. The ATM will clamp down on your card to hold it in place until the transaction is complete.

       2. Enter your PIN, and follow the on-screen instructions.

        3. Remove your card at the end of your transaction when prompted.

DIP, TAP AND SWIPE

Dip Method

 At a chip-enabled terminal

  • Instead of swiping, insert your card face up into the terminal
  • Do not take the card out until the transaction is complete

Swipe Method

At a traditional terminal without chip technology

  • Just swipe your card as you have done in the past
  • Sign or enter your PIN, if asked
  • Sign or enter your PIN, if asked, and remove the card

Tap Method (Contactless)

With the contactless feature, simply hold or tap your card against the terminal to complete your transaction. You will be able to make contactless payments on Point-of-Sale machines that support this feature. There is a limit of EC$200 per transaction for all contactless payments. Please note that ONLY this method is subject to this amount to help safeguard against fraud.
