To help protect these vital numbers, the Fair and Accurate Credit Transactions Act FACTA has put into effect a national standard of not fully printing social security numbers, and credit and debit card numbers on credit reports and receipts.
Card selection for credit card numbers is maintained and reviewed by our panel editors.
