Effective October 15, 2015, Visa and Mastercard have mandated that all merchants who accept credit cards as a form of payment must be able to accept and process chip-card (EMV) based transactions. How does this affect you? On this date, YOU, the merchant, must have EMV standards in place or potentially be liable for counterfeit fraud.
In advance of this significant deadline, Solutionreach, and our new partner, Singular Payments, are holding a webinar to educate and guide you on how these new standards impact your practice, and what you must do to ensure compliance.
IN THIS WEBINAR, YOU'LL DISCOVER:
• How to prepare your practice for EMV.
• What EMV is and what is driving the new regulations.
• What the Liability Shift means.
• How to implement the new EMV technology.
• The benefits of converting early.
• Best Practices for choosing a merchant service.
• Additional 2015 payment trends.

9. WHAT IS EMV?
• EMV™ – micro-chip payment standard created by
Europay®, Mastercard®, Visa® over 10 years ago
and has been implemented globally
• EMVCo – organization owned by the global brands
that manages the standard for global inter-operability.
• EMV payment cards improve security over magnetic
stripe technology through an embedded computer chip.
√ Card validation ensures the card is legitimate
√ Cardholder authentication reduces fraud from
lost and stolen cards
10. EMV RECENT HISTORY & HOW WE GOT HERE
• EMV Timeline
2011: Global payments brands introduced roadmaps for EMV
technology and encouraged its adoption
April 2013: First domestic milestone required processors like First
Data to accept EMV – based payments from merchants
4Q 2013: Retailer data breaches occur
October 2015: Next milestone – fraud liability shift to all point-of-sale
devices (except Automated Fuel Dispensers Oct. 2017) will take effect
LIABILITY FOR COUNTERFEIT FRAUD TRANSACTIONS SHIFT FROM
FINANCIAL INSTITUTION TO MERCHANT IF THE MERCHANT DOES
NOT ACCEPT EMV TRANSACTIONS
11. HOW EMV WORKS
PAYMENT CARD IS:
Inserted into chip-enabled
slot reader. (Contact)
Waived above the device.
( Contactless)
AT THE
POINT-OF-SALE:
A negotiation between the
card and terminal
determines which CVM
will be used.
IN SUMMARY:
Data on the chip determines
if the card is authentic.
Cardholder Verification
Method ( CVM) ensures that
the person presenting the
card is the actual cardholder.
12. IMPACT OF CREDIT CARD FRAUD
43.7% Of total worldwide payment card fraud losses were from the US, however only generated 23.5%
of total volume. (Nielson Report, August 2013)
$580.5M Total debit card fraud losses incurred by retailers. Spend $6.47 billion annually on credit and debit
card fraud prevention. (Nielson Report, August 2013)
59%
Of the more than 37 billion debit card transactions that were made verified by signature, 85% of all
fraudulent debit card transactions involved signature verification and $1.15 billion of the total $1.35
billion in debit card fraud losses (85%) stemmed from signature based debit card transactions.
(Payment Journal, February 2012)
$8.6B Estimated total cost of fraud per year in the United States (0.4% of the $2.1 trillion card payment
industry).
32% Lost/stolen, Counterfeit & Non-receipt fraud account for 32% of 2008 US fraud losses, representing
approximately $2.9 billion.
95% EMV deployment in the US is estimated to eliminate 95% of lost/stolen fraud.
90% An estimated 90% of counterfeit card fraud could be eliminated with EMV deployment in the US.

13. RISK & COST ARE STAGGERING
• Global Cyber Security spend over $61B
• Cybercrime has become one of the most profitable criminal
activities, over drugs and other crimes
• Within small merchant business alone, there have been 556MM
victims per year, 18 per second
• Total Average Cost per breach $5.5M
• Average number of breached reports 28,349
• Average cost per breached record-overall: $194
• 78% of consumers said they would stop shopping at a store if
they believed the store had experienced a card data compromise
• 78% of companies surveyed had already experienced a breach
in prior years
14. WHY IMPLEMENT EMV?
REDUCE FRAUD
• Potential to reduce POS counterfeit fraud losses with use of the chip.
• Shift fraud liability onto merchants that are not equipped to support EMV.
AVOID INCREASED EXPOSURE TO CYBERCRIMINALS
• Late adopter will be viewed as the weakest link by cybercriminals – they will find the
path of least resistance to identify weakness.
• As the market of non-chip dwindles, the criminals will target non-chip cards and
• merchants who are still accepting them.
IMPROVE MARKET PERCEPTION
• Demonstrate to customers and market that cardholder security is important.
• Poor brand perception by card holder if their issuer is last to implement EMV.
FINANCIAL INSTITUTIONS
15. WHAT THE LIABILITY SHIFT MEANS
IN U.S. TODAY:
Fraud in card-present environments absorbed by Bank/Issuer unless merchant fails
to meet POS acceptance and dispute resolution requirements
Losses are offset when dispute resolution requirements allow liability to be shifted
through “chargeback process” to Acquirer/Merchant
Merchant/Acquirer takes liability for merchant data breaches or skimming attacks
16. WHAT THE LIABILITY SHIFT MEANS
IN 2015 WITH EMV:
However, based on experiences in other markets, card fraud is expected to migrate to
the point of least resistance: the card-not-present environment and merchants that are
not EMV capable.
• Fraud losses have been rising 30-50% Year-Over-Year
• Counterfeit fraud represents the majority of issuer fraud losses.
The Liability Shift from financial institutions to merchants that cannot support EMV
transactions on October 1, 2015 could have a signifciant impact on merchant
profitability
17. BENEFITS OF EARLY ADOPTION
Merchants don’t want to be the last to
certify/deploy/implement EMV.
Fraud will move quickly to stores and locations that
do not take EMV – criminals will take the easiest path
and target the gap in the ecosystem.
Merchants should also ensure they are fully PCI
compliant, as EMV is designed to protect against
counterfeit and lost/stolen cards and PCI Compliance
is intended to prevent data breaches.
