EMV |
EMV is a standard for interoperation of IC cards ("Chip cards") and IC capable POS terminals and ATM's, for authenticating credit and debit card payments.

Europay International SA was absorbed into MasterCard in 2002. JCB (formerly Japan Credit Bureau) joined the organisation in December 2004, and American Express joined in February 2009 IC card systems. The French Carte Bancaire also uses the EMV standard. |
