Debit Card, most widely used today, by Google definition, a debit card, is a card allowing the holder to transfer money electronically from their bank account when making a purchase.
A debit card can be obtained with a checking account from a financial institution such as a bank or from a fintech company such as Stash or Cash App. Accounts with the bank or fintech company source the funds of the holder, allowing the holder to transfer money electronically from their accounts when making a purchase.
2. Credit Card, also most widely used today, by Google definition, a credit is a small plastic card issued by a bank, business, etc., allowing the holder to purchase goods or services on credit.
A credit card is based on credit worthiness. Approval of a credit card can be where you are given credit by the issuing credit card company or where you fund the credit card limit with your funds.
