You only get unencrypted stuff when doing mag-stripe, and that’s mostly just card number and name. Same with tap-to-pay may-stripe emulation (the old way which no one is supposed to use anymore, even in the US per credit card rules).

That’s why everyone has/is moving off mag-stripe (depending on country) and to EMV. With EMV and EMV contactless the terminal never gets the full card number, among many other significant security improvements.

The terminal encrypts it before sending it over the wire
