>Adding pins to checkout process adds friction and checkout time. It might be a minor amount per transaction. However if you add it up across all transactions, it's a significant amount.
Uuuuuh...
The rest of the world has been doing this for at least a decade without any problems at all. You got any kind of citation you can link us to demonstrating that the rest of the world is suffering from this decision in a way that the US is not?

- supertrope 9y agoIf "someone else" is referring to the cashier, the customer uses the payment machine themselves. In PIN using countries the waiter brings a machine or you step over to the front counter. If someone else is your spouse, kid, or personal assistant; you tell them the PIN or ask the issuer for an authorized user card.
- Sir_Substance 9y agoI...don't. Ever. Why would you do that? That's terrible. I usually transfer them the money through the free, instant, secure and traceable inter-bank transfers that are universally provided by every financial institution in my country to every other financial institution in my country, so that they can use their own card.

- gambiting 9y agoWell, you don't. But I wouldn't have a problem with my partner using my card, in which case I just give them my pin? On the other hand, that is(or should be) literally impossible with signature.
