Don't Forget Your PIN Before Travelling
Don't Forget Your PIN Before Travelling! Planning for that perfect holiday soon? Whether you're travelling alone, with friends, or family, credit and debit cards are always useful for emergency payments, purchases and transactions, especially if you don’t fancy carrying large amounts of cash. Did you know Malaysian banks and retailers have migrated from signature to PIN as the standard for verifying customers for all card purchases at domestic point of sale? PIN & PAY is a secure method of payment that uses a PIN or 6-digit secret code , instead of your signature to authorise payment. As per Bank Negara Malaysia’s mandate, all banks have switched their payment cards from Chip & Sign to Chip & PIN since June 2016 and have embarked on a massive industry-wide campaign to communicate this to their customers. Most local retailers have already migrated to PIN & PAY since 1st January 2017. Holidaying with the kids, all smiles!
