Bank cards are divided into two types: magnetic stripe cards and chip cards. The magnetic stripe card has a strip of black magnetic recording material, and the chip card has a tiny chip embedded in the card.
The way to tell the difference between the two is simple, magnetic stripe cards have a black magnetic stripe, and chip cards do not.
If it is operated in an ATM machine, generally speaking, the card insertion port in the upper left corner of the ATM machine is ' CHIP' Still ' MAGNETIC STRIPE' Depending on the bank equipment.
If you pay by card in the store, the cashier will usually mark which card is supported on the register, such as ' paypass' , ' paywave' Let's wait. These methods allow you to determine whether your card is a magnetic stripe or a chip card in order to properly use and protect your card.
