Since a micropayment solution isn't available, an advantage of using chips, tokens, etc is it minimizes the number of credit card transactions. Processing 1 $50 payment is considerably more cost effective than processing 10 $5 payments. Furthermore, credit card companies will flag customer accounts for potential fraud if they see many repeat transactions on the same day.
