There are many advantages to using Credit and Debit Cards. Many cards offer rewards such as cash back, air miles and points toward free gifts. In the case of credit cards, they offer the ability to pay for purchases over time. Debit cards, which are linked to a checking account, allow people to pay for their purchases without using checks or cash.
A debit card differs from a standard credit card in a few ways. One of the main advantages of a debit card is that money can be withdrawn directly from one's bank account instead of borrowing one from a financial institution.
no, it is a credit card. a mastercard can be either a debit or a credit card

The advantages of debit cards is they provide a handy way to pay for things with money that you have. The disadvantages are if you don't have the money, you can't pay for something.
yes. just tell the redbox its a credit card, then just swipe your debit card.An Opposing Answer:A credit card is not the same as a debit card, and vice versa. If you process a debit card as a credit card when that debit card is not encoded as an alternative credit card, the transaction will fail.
A "credit" card is a credit card.A prepaid credit card (secured) is not tied to a bank account and therefore while, like a debit card, you can only spend to the amount it has been loaded with (it will not provide credit), it is not a true debit card which IS linked into a bank account.
I prefer debit card but if you like the bank giving you money then paying it back then it credit card for you . If you have debit card is like your whole bank in your wallet :)
Credit cards say "credit" And debit cards say "debit". Hope this helps!
