Why is this article primarily talking about magnetic stripes? Surely that is decades-out-of-date tech, replaced by smartcard chips ages ago? Is this article out of date, or are there still some countries (3rd world maybe?) that still use mag stripes? Can this article be updated to primarily refer to chips please?

== Error in text ==

The first sentence says "…is a series of numbers that, in addition to the bank card number, is printed (but embossed) on a credit or debit card." Shouldn't that be "NOT" embossed? [[Special:Contributions/24.16.93.143|24.16.93.143]] ([[User talk:24.16.93.143|talk]]) 04:05, 19 June 2024 (UTC)
