Debit cards are divided into transfer cards, special cards and stored value cards according to different functions. The transfer card has the functions of transfer, cash deposit and withdrawal and consumption. Special card is a special-purpose debit card used in a specific area (except for department stores, restaurants and entertainment industries). It has the functions of transferring money and depositing and withdrawing cash. Stored value card is a prepaid wallet debit card in which the bank transfers funds to the card for storage according to the cardholder's requirements, and directly deducts money from the card during the transaction.

Credit cards are divided into credit cards and quasi-credit cards. Credit card refers to the credit card that the issuing bank gives the cardholder a certain credit limit, and the cardholder can spend first and then repay. Quasi-credit card refers to a credit card in which the cardholder deposits a certain amount of reserve fund according to the requirements of the bank, and when the reserve fund is insufficient to pay, it can be overdrawn within the credit limit stipulated by the issuing bank.

Extended data

Bank card refers to a credit payment tool issued by commercial banks (including postal financial institutions) with all or part of the functions of consumer credit, transfer settlement, cash deposit and withdrawal, etc.

Debit cards can be used for online or POS consumption or ATM transfer and withdrawal, and cannot be overdrawn. Interest is paid on the amount in the card according to the current deposit. When spending or withdrawing money, the funds are directly withdrawn from the savings account.

The use of bank cards is expanding. Not only has the circulation of cash and checks been reduced, but the banking business has also undergone fundamental changes because it has broken through the limitations of time and space. The application of bank card automatic settlement system will make the arrival of "no check, no cash society" become a reality soon.
