Credit cards don’t have pin numbers. And a debit card can be charged as a credit.

No you don’t give them your pin. They don’t need it. They get your signature afterwards, though.

The cards were definitely being called chip and PIN as they were being introduced.
I don’t recall the PIN ever being used outside of debit cards (which already used PINs in certain contexts).
Occasionally gas pumps will ask for the postal code of the billing address, but that’s about as close as we get.
