Introducing chip technology for Bronco Federal Credit Union.
Get big protection in a tiny chip.
Bronco FCU Visa® Credit Cards now come with built-in chip technology. This gives you greater fraud protection when you use your card at a chip-activated terminal. Your new card is not only secure—it's also easy to use. Here’s what you can look forward to as a cardholder.
Enhanced fraud protection.
When you use your card at a chip-activated terminal, the embedded chip generates a one-time use code. This code is virtually impossible to counterfeit and helps reduce in-store fraud.
Global acceptance.
More merchants are accepting chip transactions every day. Whether you check out using chip technology or swipe your card, you can pay with confidence wherever Visa® Credit Cards are accepted.
Easy to use.
Simply swipe your card like you do today. However, if a chip-activated terminal is available, insert your card instead and follow the prompts. See detailed steps to the right.
No matter how you pay, you're protected against unauthorized use with Visa®'s Zero Liability Policy*.
Keep in mind, you can continue to use your chip card online or over the phone—the same way you do today.

*VISA®'s Zero Liability Policy covers U.S.-issued cards and does not apply to certain commercial card transactions or any transactions not processed by VISA®. You must notify your financial institution immediately of any unauthorized use. For specific restrictions, limitations and other details, please consult your issuer.
See how easy it is to pay at a chip-activated terminal.
If a chip-activated terminal is available, follow these easy steps:
- Insert the chip end of your card into the terminal with the chip facing up.
- Keep your card in the terminal and follow the prompts.
- Remove your card when prompted and take your receipt.
If a merchant is not yet chip-activated, you can still swipe your card to pay.
