  • The State of EMV: Pushing Towards EMV Implementation in the U.S
    The State of EMV: Pushing Towards EMV Implementation in the U.S. PAYMENT SOLUTIONS As Europay®, Mastercard® and Visa® specifications were adopted in many global markets, fraud became less of a problem and paved the way for emerging technologies. Despite all the improvements that EMV offers, why hasn’t it been fully embraced in the U.S.? The Push Towards EMV Implementation in the U.S. around magnetic stripe technology – which has served the industry well, EMV is a global, open-standard set of specifications for smart cards being both reliable and inexpensive to operate. and compatible acceptance devices (ATMs, merchant terminals, etc.). EMV adoption rates, 2011 Originally developed by Europay, MasterCard and Visa (hence the acronym EMV), the EMV specifications define requirements to ensure interoperability between chip-based payment cards and terminals that authenticate credit and debit card transactions. EMV chip cards contain embedded microprocessors that offer greater transaction security — and other capabilities — than the magnetic stripe card technology used in the U.S. Other benefits of EMV include 1) guaranteed payment interoperability between countries and; 2) payment innovation – EMV is seen as a gateway to emerging technologies like mobile payments. So, despite all the improvements that EMV offers, why hasn’t the U.S. fully embraced the technology? Why the U.S. Has Been Slow to Adopt EMV The U.S. is one of the last major markets to adopt EMV technology. EMV Mastercard Analysis, 2011 has already been deployed in Europe, Asia and Canada.

    Why Has Stored Value Not Caught On? Sujit Chakravorti Emerging Issues Series Supervision and Regulation Department Federal Reserve Bank of Chicago May 2000 (S&R-2000-6) Why Has Stored Value Not Caught On? Sujit Chakravorti1 Emerging Payments Department Federal Reserve Bank of Chicago 230 S. LaSalle Street Chicago, IL 60604 [email protected] May 2000 Abstract Why have general-purpose stored-value cards been unsuccessful in penetrating the U.S. market? Three necessary conditions for a payment instrument to be successful are discussed: consumers and merchants need to be convinced of its advantages over existing payment alternatives for at least some types of transactions; payment providers must convince consumers and merchants simultaneously of its benefits to achieve critical mass; and assure them that adequate safety and security measures have been implemented. This article discusses the credit card industry’s success in meeting these necessary conditions and stored-value issuers’ failure to meet these conditions to date.
