Abstract
A system and method is provided to enable a financial services device, such as, for example, an ATM or financial services kiosk, to support a variety of card types. The card may be used for login purposes. The financial services device according to exemplary embodiments may be capable of supporting both magnetic strip only cards and EMV type cards. A card is inserted into a card reader, the card type is determined, and the card is removed. When an EMV card is recognized, the financial services may request the card be reinserted into the card reader whereupon it is clamped and held for the duration of interaction with the financial services device.
