The  Future  of  EMV®    

Page 2: The Future of EMV

•  The  deadline  to  become  EMV®  compliant  has  come  and  gone;  yet  many  are  s<ll  in  process  of  integra<ng  EMV  solu<ons.  Delays  in  adop<ng  EMV  solu<ons  may  result  in  liability  to  businesses  and  cause  detrimental  harm  in  an  instance  of  fraud.    

•  Although  the  overall  number  of  merchants  becoming  EMV  compliant  is  s<ll  low,  the  U.S.  has  made  progress  the  past  several  months  to  migrate  to  EMV.      

 

The  Future  of  EMV    

Page 3: The Future of EMV

Now  that  EMV  is  in  full  effect,  what  is  expected  for  the  future?  Take  a  look  at  the  projec<ons  of  how  EMV  will  affect  the  payments  industry.      

Page 4: The Future of EMV

Pressure  to  Become  Compliant  

•  The  payments  industry  has  voiced  the  importance  of  becoming  EMV  compliant  for  some  <me  now  and  has  expressed  the  consequences  of  what  could  occur  by  delaying  implementa<on.    

•  Yet,  even  though  the  liability  shiP  has  passed,  many  small  businesses  s<ll  have  not  made  the  switch  to  EMV  capable  solu<ons.    

 

Page 5: The Future of EMV

•  Small  businesses  are  s<ll  hesitant  about  how  EMV  will  affect  them  and  if  poten<al  chargebacks  for  fraudulent  transac<ons  offset  the  cost  of  being  compliant.  

•  Consequently,  they  face  a  significant  amount  of  pressure  to  incorporate  EMV  into  their  payment  solu<ons.    

Page 6: The Future of EMV

•  Neglec<ng  to  add  an  EMV  solu<on  could  leave  a  merchant  at  a  compe<<ve  disadvantage  by  projec<ng  an  image  that  their  system  is  not  up  to  par  with  the  latest  security  and  also  by  not  taking  advantage  of  NFC  technology,  which  is  typically  available  on  most  EMV  terminals.    

 

Page 7: The Future of EMV

•  The  good  news  is  that  experts  predict  that  more  small  businesses  will  begin  integra<ng  EMV  solu<ons  the  early  part  of  this  year,  as  more  merchants  start  their  cer<fica<on,  training,  and  tes<ng  to  accept  EMV.    

 

Page 8: The Future of EMV

Addi<onal  EMV  Educa<on  Needed    •  In  order  for  EMV  adop<on  to  con<nue  progressing,  there  needs  to  be  addi<onal  educa<on  on  EMV.    

•  Although  merchant  service  providers  and  sales  agents  are  working  to  educate  small  businesses  on  EMV,  there  is  s<ll  a  low  awareness  among  smaller  merchants.      

 

Page 9: The Future of EMV

•  To  help  push  EMV  educa<on,  merchants  should  hold  a  training  session  with  their  employees  to  cover  the  basics  of  EMV  technology  and  how  to  process  a  transac<on  with  a  chip  card.    

•  Once  employees  receive  proper  training  from  their  employer,  they  will  be  beTer  prepared  to  help  consumers  with  any  issues  or  problems  that  occur  at  checkout.

EMV  Ac<vity  Gradually  Rising  

•  With  the  holiday  rush  over,  experts  predicted  an  increase  of  small  businesses  to  begin  upgrading  their  equipment  to  accept  EMV  and  have  no<ced  an  upward  trend  each  month  of  EMV  transac<ons  taking  place.    

•  The  end  of  2015  saw  a  low  rate  of  EMV  adop<on  due  to  several  factors    

 

Page 11: The Future of EMV

Holidays  •  Many  retailers  held  off  on  upgrading  to  EMV  capable  solu<ons  

prior  to  the  holiday  season,  as  EMV  transac<ons  have  been  reported  to  take  longer  to  process  than  standard  swipe  transac<ons.    

•  With  retail  lines  already  longer  due  to  more  shoppers,  most  merchants  did  not  want  to  add  a  new  payment  solu<on  in  with  the  mix  and  cause  even  longer  lines.    

 

Factors  for  Low  Adop<on  

Page 12: The Future of EMV

Lack  of  Awareness    •  Although  most  larger  retail  merchants  were  aware  and  

made  an  investment  in  advance  for  the  liability  shiP,  smaller  businesses  rely  primarily  on  their  merchant  services  provider  to  educate  them  on  new  solu<ons.    

•  As  a  result,  many  small  businesses  lacked  awareness  on  the  importance  of  becoming  EMV  compliant  due  to  a  lack  of  their  own  resources  and  <me  to  invest  in  EMV-­‐capable  solu<ons  during  busy  fall  and  holiday  seasons.    

 

Factors  for  Low  Adop<on  

Page 13: The Future of EMV

•  As  the  migra<on  to  EMV  acceptance  con<nues  to  grow  in  the  U.S.,  small  businesses  and  payment  industry  experts  should  con<nue  to  push  the  adop<on  of  EMV  solu<ons.    

•  Throughout  2016,  there  will  be  an  increase  in  pressure  for  merchants  to  become  EMV  compliant,  addi<onal  EMV  educa<on  will  be  needed,  and  EMV  ac<vity  will  slowly  but  surely  con<nue  to  rise  in  use.
