How secure is your credit or debit card?
With the growing frequency of large scale data compromises, skimming, phishing and vishing, card holders are justifiably concerned that their card data is increasingly at risk. Recent attacks demonstrate that both credit and debit cards are at risk from fraud due to the theft of card data.
While cardholders can recover financial losses resulting from stolen card data, it is often a painstaking process that costs time and money. In addition, replacing your compromised card with a new card is time-consuming and aggravating.
With QSecure's SmartStripe™ credit and debit cards, your card data is safe because every time you use your card, a QSecure chip embedded in the magnetic stripe of the card generates a unique number good for only that one transaction. If a thief or hacker steals that information, it is useless because it is not valid for any additional transactions. And best of all, you don't have to change the way you use your credit or debit cards. SmartStripe™ cards work in all existing card readers worldwide and there are no special passwords or complicated procedures to remember. You get all the protection and security you want and you don't have to do anything different!
Welcome to the future of safe, secure credit and debit transactions using SmartStripe™ cards issued by your current financial institution.
The QSecure solution is currently being evaluated and tested by several major card issuers and is expected to be available to card holders next year.
