Question about Chinese Credit Cards

  Do I need a pin number when using my U.S. credit card in China?

  When I first came to China about 6 years ago, whenever I tried to use my U.S. Visa credit card at the stores like the shopping malls, they asked me to input a pin number. Back at home in the U.S., I don't need to input anything. Just swipe, sign and everything is okay. Is today still the same situation? Thank you for reading.
