The Smart Card Alliance (SCA) has launched a website called EMV Connection, which is geared toward helping payments industry participants learn about EMV chip technology and the migration toward its implementation.
The site gathers together the SCA’s library of EMV information, including frequently asked questions, white papers, videos, slideshows and links to EMV resources.
The SCA aims to help issuers get started with EMV migration plans, teach merchants about the impact of EMV, assist acquirers and processors with meeting the April 2013 deadline for EMV transactional handling and teach consumers about the improved fraud capabilities and how EMV cards work.
The SCA plans to update the website with the latest EMV news and is taking suggestions for information that can be added to the site.
