90% of the US properties where I used physical cards, they do NOT swipe the cards. Instead they entered the info directly into the system, i.e. under the Givex menu. Past week I used multiple GCs on 2 check out in The Notary Autograph, Philly, different FDC entered the card info into the system one by one, no swiping ever done.
