Maker me want to get one of these. You load all of your credit cards on to.it and then when you want to pay for something you enter your pin in the card the select which credit card you want to use and then swipe. No pin.... No magnetic stripe or bff or chip. The card turns those off until you enter your pin. Been thinking about this...wonder if it would work with gift cards

Interesting. Expensive. $155.00.

I wonder what happens when you try to use it at a smart chip terminal but the EMV function on the device isn't enabled yet?
All of my cards are chipped already.

This is yet another reason why we need the 2nd Amendment.

It happens after you've paid an attorney an amount greater than that seized.
