There are options to override EMV if the chip is broken, an option to set a limit for such overridden transactions, an option to set limits for NFC transactions, and a bunch of other options including disabling NFC and EMV entirely.
I feel like that's a significant number of quick service restaurants who aren't going to make the liability shift deadline. Doesn't Chipotle use them? Or am I thinking of something else with NCR on it?
