EMV is short for Europay, MasterCard, and Visa, the 1994 founders. It commonly refers to a credit card with a smart chip.

The EMV standard is a security technology used worldwide for all payments done with credit, debit, and prepaid EMV smart cards.

EMV cards generate a unique code that your bank validates for each transaction, and the code cannot be re-used.

A fraudster couldn't make a transaction using a fake card with stolen data at an EMV terminal because it wouldn't generate the proper code.
