There are also five countries above the 50% adoption threshold: Chile, Costa Rica, Panama, Guatemala, and Bermuda \u2013 and markets like Peru and Colombia follow suit with more than 40% contactless penetration. Consumer preference is clearly a result of contactless payments enabling a fast, convenient, safe and secure experience without the need for consumers to touch the checkout terminal.\n<\/p>\n<p id=\"news-body-cta\">This press release features multimedia.

But convenience is not the only factor for the popularity; contactless cards are also secure and provide strong protection against fraud. Using the same secure technology as EMV\u00ae Chip, contactless cards are extremely effective in preventing counterfeit fraud by using a one-time use code that prevents compromised data from being re-used for fraud. In fact, contactless cards experience among the lowest fraud rates of any type of payment\u2014significantly lower than magnetic stripe cards and comparable to conventional chip cards.\n<\/p>\n<p>\nAs the world experienced an unprecedented shift toward digital commerce over the last year, tokenization is becoming one of the most effective ways to avoid fraud and allow for more secure and easy digital payment experiences. This invisible technology replaces sensitive card account details with a digital identifier, or &#8220;tokens\u201d that are more protected against fraudsters. So, whether a consumer is paying with a contactless card, digital wallet or wearable, Visa\u2019s security layers are protecting the underlying transaction every step of the way.\n<\/p>\n<p>\nVisa will continue to work closely with bank, merchant, government and fintech partners in the region to build on this momentum and continue to drive adoption of contactless payments in the region, especially in new and niche sectors like urban mobility for instance. As a company Visa remains committed to its core mission to connect the world to enable individuals, businesses, and economies to thrive.\n<\/p>\n<p><b>About Visa Inc.<\/b><\/p>\n<p>\nVisa Inc.
