are companies allowed to print my entire credit card number on my receipt?

posted by askmrcredit on (6 years, 9 months ago)

After December 4, 2006, companies will not be allowed to print your credit or debit card expiration date or more than the last 5 digits of your card number on your electronic receipt. Some businesses will be required to make this change sooner, depending on the way they process credit card transactions. The law will allow receipts that are hand written or mechanically imprinted to show your entire number and expiration date, even after December 4, 2006. For more information see section 605(g) of the FCRA.
