What's really frustrating is the preference for signature. It makes almost all US chip cards useless outside of the US and Canada because, for whatever reason, standalone terminals and even some online POS pads will trip over the "signature preferred" bit. It also means that cards like you list are not usable at a signature-only terminal, even one like SquareUp that can do online, live verification.
Why can't the US financial system just _follow_ the rest of the world for once?
