1. What is blink_®?
   blink is a way to use your Chase card (credit or debit) to pay for purchases without swiping or handing over your card. By merely waving your Chase card in front of a reader anywhere you see this symbol:you can pay without the card leaving your hand.
2. Are there advantages to using blink?
   Yes, there are several advantages to using blink:
   
   • blink is fast. Speed up your time at checkout. No swiping necessary.
   • blink is easy. Just hold your Chase card in front of the reader.
   • blink is secure. It’s just as safe as swiping. You are protected from unauthorized purchases.¹
3. Are there any fees for using blink?
   No. A blink transaction is treated just like any other transaction using your Chase card. There are no fees if you use blink versus having your card swiped by the merchant.
4. How does blink work?
   blink is a feature built into your Chase card that allows a merchant’s card reader to receive a secure signal from your card that provides all the information required to complete the transaction — all without ever leaving your hands. And of course, your Chase card with blink can still be swiped like a regular credit or debit card at millions of locations worldwide.

5. How do I use blink?
   It’s easy — just follow these steps:
   1. When your purchases are totaled, hold your card up to the reader.
   2. If you are prompted to select credit or debit, you must select credit to blink (even for a debit card). You will not be required to enter your PIN. (If you are using your debit card, the money will still come directly out of your checking account.)
   3. Lights will flash and/or a tone will sound to indicate your card has been read.
   4. Your transaction is approved and you’re on your way.

Plus, just as when your card is swiped, you are protected against unauthorized purchases.¹
