What is a chip card?

A chip card—also known as an EMV card—is a debit card with an added layer of security when you pay with your debit card at a chip-enabled terminal.

How does the chip card work?

If the merchant has a chip-enabled terminal, simply insert your chip card face up in the terminal. The chip card will remain in the terminal while the transaction is processed. To authorize your transaction, just follow the prompts as you do today. You’ll be prompted to enter your PIN or to provide a signature as you normally would to verify the transaction. If the transaction amount is low, you may not be required to do either.

Why are chip debit/credit cards more secure?

Yes, when purchases are made using chip technology at chip-enabled terminals, the transaction is more secure because of a unique process that is used to determine if the card is authentic. This makes the card more difficult to counterfeit or copy.

Will chip debit/credit cards prevent all fraud from happening?

No, as the industry continues to develop new ways to protect consumers, perpetrators continue to look for new ways to commit fraud. Chip cards provide an additional layer of security at chip-enabled terminals.

Will I be liable for fraudulent purchases with my card?

No, you will not be liable for fraudulent purchases made with your debit card even if the terminal is not chip-enabled. Just remember to contact Premier Bank as soon as possible if you identify any unauthorized activity on your account at 1-877-367-8178.

Can I use my chip debit/credit card at merchants that don't have a chip-enabled terminal yet?

Yes, in addition to the embedded chip that provides an added layer of security at chip-enabled terminals, your card will continue to have the traditional magnetic stripe, enabling you to use it at merchants who do not yet have a chip-enabled terminal.

Are there any additional fees associated with using a chip debit/credit card? 

There is no additional cost to have or to use your new card with chip technology.

Can I get cash back with my chip debit/credit card?

The cashback option is determined by the individual merchant. If cash back is an option, you would need to use the debit function when processing your payment.

What if my card doesn't work when inserted into a chip-enabled terminal?

• The chip-enabled terminal is installed, but not turned on. Some merchants are not yet allowing debit chip cards to be inserted. This may occur in the short-term while terminals are becoming chip-enabled. If you insert your chip debit card and nothing happens, please swipe your card to complete your transaction.
• The chip-enabled terminal is turned on for chip credit cards only. Some merchants are only allowing chip credit cards to be inserted and plan to allow chip debit cards at a later date. If you insert your chip debit card and nothing happens, please swipe your card and complete your transaction. This does not mean there is anything wrong with the chip on your card.

You may always choose to swipe your card first, and if the merchant accepts chip debit cards, you’ll be instructed to insert your card into the terminal.

Will my chip debit card work at all ATMs?

Yes, your card will work at both a chip-enabled ATM and at ATMs where only magnetic stripe transactions are accepted.

1. Insert your card face-up in the ATM to begin your transaction. 
2. Follow the on-screen instructions (chip-enabled ATMs will hold your card during the transaction). 
3. Take your card when prompted
