(And we actually have problems when visiting USA because some of our banks issue credit card with numbers printed instead of embossed.)
In these cases your issuer will learn about these transactions when the nightly batch job finishes. I don't think you want to get an SMS at that time.
Even if the authorisation is successful the final transaction may not happen, may happen at a different time or may happen over a different transaction amount.
Honestly I have no idea why I got downvoted.
