What credit card transaction requires a PIN? Those are strictly for
debit card transactions.

All UK transactions.

... other than on-line (or contactless?).

And several other classes of payment[1] transaction including many car
park pay machines and apparently the M6 Toll.

[1] As we seem to be in pedant's corner, a ToD or cinema ticket
collection is a transaction but doesn't need a PIN.
