Contactless Explorer card offer
Just in time for an upcoming trip to France, I received an email from Chase offering to replace my MP Explorer card with a contactless one. Jumped right on it. The new card should arrive a few days before I leave.

As in"tap" style card? My Select card already does this. Surprised the Explorer doesn't. How long have you had that particular card? When did it last expire. My was replaced about 12 months ago due to a fraud issue.

Still no sign of a chip-and-pin version.

Chase has been replacing almost its entire credit card portfolio with the contactless version. My many Chase (non-UA) credit cards have been updating (slowly) on whatever cycle Chase has me on.
