Your new SDCCU Visa card has an embedded microchip. The chip allows you to pay at merchants with chip cards readers. More importantly, it provides strong security and protection against fraud.
Why was my card replaced with a chip card?
SDCCU is proactively embracing this technology and making sure you can make payments domestically and abroad.
- We value your financial security. Your new card comes with advanced security because the chip technology makes it difficult for a fraudster to counterfeit your card.
- Although magnetic stripe cards continue to be the most common type of card in the U.S., many other countries, especially in Europe, have switched to chip cards. Giving you a new chip card is one way we can help simplify your purchase experience when you’re traveling domestically and abroad.
