Both debit and credit cards can be used to make purchases at businesses that accept them and on online. Debit cards are connected to your checking account, so you must have money in your account to use them. Credit cards are credit, so you can use them until they reach your credit limit. Either can be blocked by the bank if they suspect fraud or suspicious activity, so it is best to carry a second card or cash for backup.

What is a debit card used for?

A debit card is similar to a credit card, as they typically will contain a Visa, Mastercard or American Express logo. There are two typical types of non-credit cards: gifts cards (which do not have your name on the card) or debit cards (with your name). Debit cards are issued by a bank and generally have conditions for use and monthly maintenance fees. Debit cards can be used in many of the same ways a credit card can: in-person purchases, online purchases, ATM withdrawal (check your card). The difference between a credit and debit card is that debit cards traditionally do not affect your credit rating, whereas credit cards do.
