You can use your new chip card anywhere Visa is accepted. You simply insert the card into card terminals that are chip-enabled or swipe your card at merchant locations that have not yet switched to chip-enabled card terminals. You can also continue to use your card as you did before for online payments and telephone payments.

No. Chip card technology provides an additional layer of security when used at a chip-enabled terminal. The technology may help reduce certain types of fraud resulting from data breaches; however, it will not prevent a data breach.

Chip cards contain an embedded microchip, which provides enhanced security by making it extremely difficult to counterfeit or copy when making transactions at a chip-enabled terminal. Your chip card will also have the usual magnetic stripe on the back so that you can continue to swipe your debit card or credit card while merchants are transitioning to new chip card terminals. Chip technology is also more broadly accepted internationally.

Yes. The chip generates a unique, one-time code each time you 'dip' your Heartland Bank Visa card at a chip-enabled terminal - this typically takes about 10 seconds.
