4 Qualification of Information The credit and debit card fraud information utilised in this report was provided by African Bank, albaraka Bank, Bank of Athens, Barclays Africa Group, Bidvest, Capitec Bank, First National Bank, Investec, Mercantile Bank, Nedbank, Postbank, ubank, Sasfin, Standard Bank of South Africa as well as Amex, Diners Club and Virgin. The statistics used in the report cover the period from 01 January to 31 December. For the comparative analysis, the abovementioned period was compared to similar periods from 2010, with a specific focus on and. The information set used was as follows: All credit and debit card gross fraud losses reported to SABRIC as at the 12th of March All calculations are based on the date that the fraudulent transaction occurred. All fraud losses mentioned in this booklet refer to gross fraud losses and do not relate to the net losses suffered by the banking industry. Fraud loss figures are rounded to the nearest R1 million, unless otherwise stated and therefore, the sum of the separate losses (for example per loss category/fraud types/provinces) may differ from the rounded loss reflected. PASA Payments Association of South Africa Card payments in South Africa continue to be a predominant part of the National Payments System in an evolving payments ecosystem. The drive to replace magstripe cards with more secure and improved EMV chip and PIN capable cards continues, with nearly all credit cards being issued with them, as well as the majority of debit cards in the domestic market. The percentage of card-present transactions which are EMV compliant has increased from 90.19% to 90.89% in Africa and the Middle East. This is currently only bettered by certain European zones that continue to take the lead in card-present EMV transactions. The United States has made significant progress with the implementation of chip cards, boasting an increase from 18.61% to 41.21% card-present EMV transactions in. In the Africa and Middle East region, EMV chip card deployment and adoption rates have increased from 184 million cards in to 219 million cards in. This equates to an adoption rate increase from 68.7% in to 74.8% in. The adoption rates are still way ahead of the average worldwide EMV chip card adoption rate of 54.6%. Even though the statistics are encouraging, card fraud remains a concern with periodic data breaches, especially in the card-not-present environment. The South African industry has however seen continued efforts to ensure the effectiveness and robustness of 3D Secure for e-commerce transactions. In addition, the market is considering the benefits that 3D Secure 2.0 would offer in securing transactions, as this provides significantly more transactional data richness for users. As the world of payments continues to embrace digital platforms and channels, new security technologies will play a critical role in mitigating risk. An increasing number of players worldwide are adopting the practice of tokenisation where a token is issued to a user to process transactions rather than the actual card details. This not only augments e-commerce security and reduces fraud risk, but provides additional opportunities such as foundational innovation capabilities for digital payments. Contactless payments have continued to grow in South Africa with several merchants deploying contactless acceptance devices, complimented by the issuance of an ever-increasing number of contactless enabled cards. This technology has further seen cross-pollination into tokenised contactless mobile payments with the increasing number of contactless enabled mobile devices. With the drive to explore further payment opportunities to enable a frictionless customer experience and minimise cost for payment players alike, QR Code payments have continued to become a popular payment alternative. Standardised international specifications for QR Codes are being developed to enhance the security of these transactions. The South African payments industry will continue to pursue safe, secure and relevant payment systems in this ever-changing global marketplace by utilising joint initiatives an aligned to international best practices.

13 Description of Fraud Types Lost and/or stolen card fraud Definition Lost card fraud is a fraudulent transaction that occurs on a valid issued card after the cardholder has lost his/her card, and is no longer in possession of it. Stolen card fraud is performed on a valid issued card that has been stolen from a legitimate owner. Lost and/or stolen card fraud Trend Lost and/or stolen credit card fraud increased by 44.5% from R17.8m in to R25.7 in and accounted for 5.9% of the total gross fraud losses on credit cards. An increase has been observed since. Most of these fraudulent transactions (76.1%) occurred inside South Africa. The highest gross fraud losses reported on lost and/or stolen credit cards were because of fraudulent cash withdrawals and purchases at toll plazas, service stations, liquor stores and family clothing stores.

Criminals distracted victims by offering them assistance during which the card and PIN was obtained. The card was used repeatedly at ATMs until the daily cash withdrawal limit on the card had been reached after which, high value transactions were made at merchants. PAGE: 25 // 42 PAGE: 26 // 42
