Wait, how have you guys fucked up payments this time? I thought the US was finally on board with everyone else after the chip and sign debacle

In the UK (and anywhere I can recall travelling) we pretty much always tap (i.e. move your phone or card within 5cm) above the screen or a bit more in recent years, on the top of the machine for one of those touch screen ones.

I think the only time I don't manage to pay first time is when the terminal or my phone is broken

I'm in Canada and my issue is every machine wants you to tap somewhere different. They all have a label somewhere indicating where to tap, but sometimes it's on a screen, sometimes a sticker somewhere, sometimes a handwritten note next to the machine... and there are so many other signs and stickers all over the place that I often don't spot the right one right away, so it takes me a couple of tries. Other than that it's very easy.

But the cashiers always look at you judgingly like "why don't you know how to do this basic thing?? It has the little logo RIGHT THERE beside these other 6 flashier logos." Or at least in mind that what they're thinking lol
