This picture shows a normal credit card with a microchip at the top left. The chip is tiny but holds 2MB. It is a "bald" chip, capable of holding a lot of information in any format. It could hold identity information, bank details or a few tunes. As HP pointed out, this type of chip is just waiting for banks to put it to good use.
