MasterCard’s EMV policy roadmap includes a policy to shift EMV fraud liability to the party with the lowest degree of EMV compliance. According to MasterCard’s announcement, the following policy becomes effective in October 2015:

October, 2015 – Fraud Liability Shift. MasterCard liability hierarchy takes effect. The party that has made investment in the most secure EMV options is protected from financial liability for card-present fraud losses for both counterfeit and lost, stolen and non-receipt fraud on this date.
