Does the GM World Elite MasterCard Have an EMV Chip?

[poiuytrewq]

Hello all,

First time poster, long time lurker. 

I'm planning on going abroad and would prefer to have a credit card with an EMV chip just incase. I prefer a World Elite MasterCard with no annual fee and only found two options:

1. The GM card

2. The Saks World Elite MasterCard (I would not be able to get this since I don't have the regular Saks MC)

So does the GM card have an EMV chip built into it? I did some searches and could not find this information and did not see an EMV chip in any of the pictures. 

Thanks.

No, it does not have an EMV chip.

Welcome to the Forums poiuytrewq.

Mine didn't when it came via mail. Idk if they even offer the EMV if requested.

Thanks for the replies guys.

I actually ended up calling them just to confirm and they said in the past the card had this feature but has been "temporarily" removed.
