Supermarket Tesco said chip and pin payments were not affected, but contactless payments were.


i don't even know what "contactless payment" is


You hover your card over the payment terminal for about a second. No swiping or inserting your card. It's pretty much the standard in Europe from what I've seen. The USA is years behind on it


is it standard here in Europe?
i've only seen it a rare few times, myself.

i don't really see the point of it, without the PIN, it seems like you kiss all security good bye

I can count the amount of times I've used contactless on one hand. And this is in 6 years of using a card

I use Gameraven and you should too.
