Credit card
A
credit card is a system of
payment named after the small
plastic card issued to users of the system. A credit card is different from a
debit card in that it does not remove money from the user's account after every transaction. In the case of credit cards, the issuer lends
money to the
consumer (or the user). It is also different from a
charge card (though this name is sometimes used by the public to describe credit cards), which requires the balance to be paid in full each month. In contrast, a credit card allows the consumer to 'revolve' their balance, at the cost of having
interest charged. Most credit cards are the same shape and size, as specified by the
ISO 7810 standard.
