Credit Card Glossary: Terms and Definitions
Dual interface chip card
A dual-interface chip card has both contact and contactless interfaces. The “contactless” part means it has RFID chip that enables it to make payments through the RFID short-range radio communication. The “contact” part means it can be used with physical readers, either via a traditional magnetic stripe or with an EMV chip that lets it be dipped into an EMV reader.
