## Resource

That signature on the back of your bank card? Yeah, it’s basically obsolete. Forget matching your pen scribble to check signatures or hunting for a working pen—today’s cards are tapped or waved, instantly verified by digital systems. Banks don’t even bother checking anymore, and finding a branch feels like a quest. Say goodbye to the slow, pen-and-paper era of card payments.
