I'm in Milan now and I was shocked that my PenFed Visa got rejected at the Milan metro kiosks. I only realized it was chip and signature when I read about it in here. Apparently the kiosks ignore the PIN capability? Why?

From the google doc, it looks like there are many kinds of authentication, not all of which I understand.

So...if you were going to get a card with no foreign transaction fees that worked as a standard chip and pin when overseas, what authentication method would you want from that Google doc? What are the best cards from that perspective?

Thanks!
