Chip MasterCard Credit Cards

Get Ready for the Chip Card Evolution!

Enjoy peace of mind, security and freedom with a CUETS MasterCard credit card. We've started rolling out chip-embedded MasterCard credit cards to our members because we're committed to providing you with the highest level of security. Chip technology is virtually impossible to copy and provides further protection from identity theft and fraud.
To use your chip-embedded credit card at a chip terminal you simply follow these steps:
Step 1: Insert your credit card "chip first" into the chip-reader on the terminal.
            Note: Your card remains in the terminal during the entire transaction.

Step 2: Click OK on the purchase amount. Enter your four-digit Personal Identification Number (PIN) and wait for the transaction to be processed.

Step 3: Remove your chip card after your transaction is Approved. With chip technology you don't have to sign a receipt when you make a purchase, instead you only enter your four-digit PIN.
The conversion to chip technology will take several years to complete, therefore all chip-embedded CUETS MasterCard credit cards will also have a magnetic stripe on the back. The magnetic stripe remains a secure method of payment and having it on your credit card ensures that transactions will be accepted worldwide at terminals and ATMs that are not yet chip-enabled.
You can change the PIN on your chip credit card at any East Coast Credit Union Branch. As well as at any Canadian credit union that has an in-branch PIN changing device.

Remember to always
protect Your PIN whether you are using a chip card or a card with a magnetic stripe.

We offer a broad range of CUETS MasterCard products that are sure to meet your needs. Whether you're looking for a Platinum card with added benefits, or a no-fee student card, we can help. You can also sign up for our Choice Rewards Program and earn points towards airfare, travel packages and brand name merchandise.
