A consumer may, for example, when inserting payment card  300  at a card reader, flip payment card  300  over and/or end-to-end to pay with any of four different financial service accounts (i.e., with any of the four chips or four antennae of the card). In such an embodiment, the payment card  300  may include four antennae each coupled to four different smart chips and may provide near-field contactless access to the smart chips as well. Furthermore, RF block  340  may electronically isolate the first antenna, the second antenna, the third antenna, and the fourth antenna from each other. 
       FIG.  3 B  is an exemplary perspective view of a multi-faced payment card with partitioned dual smart chips and antennae of  FIG.  3 A , consistent with disclosed embodiments.  FIG.  3 B  includes chips  312  and  322  on face  310  of payment card  300 . In some embodiments, two or more chips may be placed on a face of payment card  300 . In such an embodiment, each of the two or more chips may be associated with two or more antennae that are electrically isolated from each other by one or more RF blocks  340 . In use, card  300  may be inserted into a card reader from either end and/or either side such that either chip  312  or  322  is read and used for a transaction. For contactless transactions, one of the antennae  313 ,  323  may be energized by a card reader while the RF block  340  ensures the other is isolated. In such embodiments, one antenna is sufficiently energized to provide a response that may beread while the other antennae is isolated by RF block  340  such that it cannot attain sufficient power to respond or register. 
       FIG.  4    is an exemplary multi-faced payment card  400  with partitioned four smart chips and four antennae. Payment card  400  may include two faces-face  310  and face  320 . Face  320  may be opposite face  310 . Payment card  300  may further include four smart chips, chip  312 , chip  322 , chip  362 , and chip  372 , four antennae, antenna  313 , antenna  323 , antenna  363 , and antenna  373 , and four magnetic strips, magnetic strip  314 , magnetic strip  324 , magnetic strip  364 , and magnetic strip  374 . 
     In some embodiments, payment card  300  may include four smart chips and four antennae, one chip and antennae associated with one financial service account. In such an embodiment, each face of payment card  300  may have two exposed smart chips. A consumer may, for example, when inserting payment card  300  at a card reader, flip payment card  300  over and/or end-to-end to pay with any of four different financial service accounts (i.e., with any one of the four chips). A consumer may also use any one of the four antennae, each coupled to a different smart chip, to engage in a contactless transaction via near-field communication with a reader. Each of the antennae may enable a card reader to wirelessly interact with the smart chips. In the process, RF block  340  may electronically isolate antenna  313 , antenna  323 , antenna  363 , and antenna  373  from one another to reduce interference. In some embodiments, the antennae may be arranged to maximize a distance between coils of the antennae along the card and their strength upon energization should be minimized to only what may necessary for performing transactions. Smart chips (chip  312 , chip  322 , chip  362 , and chip  372 ) may be placed anywhere in the card and may, in alternative embodiments, include multiple antennae. The contacts for the chips may be placedsuch that they can be used for insertion and the chips may be placed below the contacts. 
       FIG.  5    shows an exemplary method for transacting a payment using a card reader having a user input, consistent with disclosed embodiments. Process  500  may be performed by processor  210  of, for example, local FSP device  130  executing instructions encoded on a computer-readable medium storage device. It is to be understood, however, that one or more steps of process  400  may be implemented by other components of system  100  (shown or not shown), including user device  110 . In some embodiments, card reader of local FSP device  130  may read multiple antennae from card  300  when the user is attempting to execute a contactless payment. In such an embodiment, the user may use user device  110  to confirm the correct financial service account associated with card  300  to charge. 
     At step  510 , local FSP device  130  may read, via a card reader data from a plurality of antennae associated with the payment card presented to complete a transaction, each of the antennae being associated with a corresponding financial service account. In some embodiments, a user may provide payment card  300  to a cardreader of local FSP device  130  to complete a transaction by either swiping the magneticstrip of payment card  300 , inserting one of the chips of payment card  300  into a card reader, or using a “tap to pay” contactless payment feature using the antennae of payment card  300 . The latter option utilizes wireless communication (e.g., NFC) to energize the antennae of the card in order to receive information from each antenna’s associated chip. In some embodiments, card reader may read multiple antennae when the user taps to pay, each antenna associated with a chip and a particular payment account. 
     At step  520 , local FSP device  130  may receive a user input from user device  110  selecting one of the plurality of financial service accounts to use in completing the transaction. In some embodiments, the user input may be indicated via amobile application, a text message, or an e-mail message. In some embodiments, localFSP device  130  may communicate with another server to initiate the indication. In other embodiments, local FSP device  130  may directly communicate with user device  110 . Inyet other embodiments, the user may receive the indication upon opening an online application on user device  110 . Alternatively, the user prompted to open an indication via an application on user device  110 . 
     At step  530 , local FSP device  130  may complete the transaction using the selected financial account. For example, local FSP device  130  may transmit information associated with the selected financial service account to the appropriate payment processing network or to the appropriate financial provider associated with the selected financial service account to fulfill the requested transaction. In some embodiments, a confirmation of sufficient funds or other appropriate authorization may be received. Upon receiving such a confirmation, the local FSP device  130  may indicatethat the transaction has been successful. Additional processing may then be undertaken. For example, if the local FSP device  130  is an ATM, the local FSP device  130  may dispense funds and provide an itemized receipt including details of the ATM transaction. In other embodiments, local FSP device  130  may provide the user with confirmation the card has been successfully charged and provide a receipt via localFSP device  103 , a mobile application, a text message, or an e-mail message. 
     In some embodiments, local FSP device  130  may print a receipt listing the performed transaction. In other embodiments, local FSP device  130  may send anelectronic receipt to user device  110 .
