Methods For Placing An EMV Chip Onto A Metal Card
An electronic payment card includes a payment card substrate having opposed top and bottom faces. An EMV chip is disposed at a location on one of the top and bottom faces of the payment card substrate. The EMV chip is a donor EMV chip removed from a donor electronic payment card on which the donor EMV chip was previously disposed.
1 . An electronic payment card comprising:
a payment card substrate having opposed top and bottom faces; and
an EMV chip disposed at a location on one of the top and bottom faces of the payment card substrate;
wherein the EMV chip is a donor EMV chip removed from a donor electronic payment card on which the donor EMV chip was previously disposed.
2 . The electronic payment card of claim 1 , wherein the payment card substrate is metallic.
3 . The electronic payment card of claim 1 , wherein the payment card substrate is not plastic.
4 . The electronic payment card of claim 1 , wherein the payment card substrate is a non-plastic material.
5 . The electronic payment card of claim 1 , wherein the location is a holding cavity.
6 . The electronic payment card of claim 1 , further comprising an adhesive adhering the EMV chip to the location.
7 . An electronic payment card comprising:
a payment card substrate having opposed top and bottom faces; and
one or more EMV chips disposed at one or more locations on either the top or bottom faces of the payment card substrate;
wherein the one or more EMV chips are one or more donor EMV chips removed from one or more donor electronic payment cards on which the one or more donor EMV chips were previously disposed.
8 . The electronic payment card of claim 7 , wherein the payment card substrate is metallic.
9 . The electronic payment card of claim 7 , wherein the payment card substrate is not plastic.

11 . The electronic payment card of claim 7 , wherein each of the one or more locations is a holding cavity.
12 . The electronic payment card of claim 7 , further comprising an adhesive adhering the one or more EMV chips to the one or more locations.
13 . An electronic payment card comprising:
a payment card substrate having opposed top and bottom faces; and
an EMV chip disposed at a location on the payment card substrate;
wherein the EMV chip is a donor EMV chip removed from a donor electronic payment card on which the donor EMV chip was previously disposed.
14 . The electronic payment card of claim 13 , wherein the location is on the top face of the payment card substrate.
15 . The electronic payment card of claim 13 , wherein the location is on the bottom face of the payment card substrate.
16 . The electronic payment card of claim 13 , wherein the payment card substrate is metallic.
17 . The electronic payment card of claim 13 , wherein the payment card substrate is not plastic.
18 . The electronic payment card of claim 13 , wherein the payment card substrate is a non-plastic material.
19 . The electronic payment card of claim 13 , wherein the location is a holding cavity.
20 . The electronic payment card of claim 13 , further comprising an adhesive adhering the EMV chip to the location.
