Chip cards are more widely used, while magnetic stripe cards are not always convenient to use in some places.

I only used a chip card. Magnetic stripe cards seem to be used less there, at least for filling up gas, which requires a chip card to be inserted, without a swiping area.

I've been in Iceland for three days. I've used my credit card to pay for groceries at the supermarket, at the hotel, and to buy a local phone card. But no one has asked me to enter a password or sign anything. My credit card is from CMB and the gas station didn't ask me to enter a password because I bought a gas card. I'm not sure why ?
