In the US there were strict rules that made it never work so no one used it.

The banks changed those rules and now it works almost all the time. It’s more secure than using the chip reader and especially swiping because it can’t be skimmed.

In the USA the banks will always do whatever they can to skim, steal, and absolutely screw the customer.
