chip and pin

  

Definition

Program sponsored by the United Kingdom to implement a new debt card system that uses a chip implanted in the card and a pin number to authorize transaction. When the debit card is passed through the card reader, it will access the stored information on the chip and compare it to the pin number typed in by the user. The system has become widely used in the United Kingdom and is very similar to the standard debit card systems in other countries.
