How to Choose Credit at Central Florida's Most Popular Retailers
Asking how is the easiest and fastest way to run a debit transaction as credit—unless you already know how the retailer’s point of sale system works.
Until all retailers have fully transitioned to EMV terminals and adopted the necessary technology, the exact process for skipping the PIN will continue evolving. While we patiently wait for this transition to take place in its entirety, many of us have already memorized how to run a debit transaction as credit at our favorite stores. But what about all the retailers you don’t visit on a regular basis, whose terminals you haven’t memorized how to use?
