      With a chip, you can copy it, at least not easily.

      Right, chips are very hard to copy. Not sure if anyone is even able to do it yet. Add the pin feature and you can't use the card in the owner's absence [easily].

        Then then I'd say the same about Tap and Pay - if you aren't entering a PIN, how are you any safer then just chip?

        Chip + biometric + time limit.

          what is the biometric?

            I used Tap to pay with ISIS before Google bought them and changed it to Google Wallet (added to... whatever they did). No biometric used there.

              It's limited $ and easy to contest. Also speeds up the line at Timmie's like you would not believe. I bet the ones in Ontario* will take debit soon with tap enabled.

              *Tim Hortons refused to accept debit for a long time as it caused EPIC lineups. Best of my knowledge they still do not in Ontario (cash only)

                WOW - were the terminals so slow that entering a PIN for debt caused a problem?

                I remember the commercials from a few years ago... when they were trying to get you to use CC... and someone used Cash and the whole line grinded to a halt.. funny how things are turned around now.

                  @Dashrender humans were slow. faster to hand over a 20 and let the machine* cough out your change.

                  *well known fact that Tim's cashiers are just humanoid robots created for the sole purpose of handing back exact change with inhuman speed.

                    Not turning around, just moving continuously in the same direction. Paying in cash still takes a long time. A lot of places fall apart trying to figure out money and change.

                      It's probably the best thing I like about Sonic restaurant. Employees who work there have actual real life basic math skills. They can usually figure out change in a second. Three at the max.

                        I can honestly say I used to be able to do this... until I went to college then my math skills went to hell.
