Credit Cards
A credit card system is a type of retail transaction
settlement and credit system, named after the small plastic card issued to
users of the system. A credit card is different from a debit card in that
the credit card issuer lends the consumer money rather than having the money
removed from an account. It is also different from a charge card (though
this name is sometimes used by the public to describe credit cards) in that
charge cards require that the balance 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. Abbey Credit Card. City
