Just got a new WF card (Active Cash) to replace my old one expiring soon. There's no line on the back to sign the card. I've never seen this before - including on another new WF card (Autograph Journey) received only about three months ago.

I called customer service, and the agent said signatures on credit cards are no longer required. I mean, I guess most in-person transactions these days are chip, or digital wallet, or at the very least chip - but it still struck me as odd.

Is this brand new, or am I just oblivious?
