A credit card is basically a plastic card with a magnetic strip invented with the intention to simplify the complicated banking process for an individual in case he/she is short of cash. Many people don’t like to carry much cash. For them the cards are convenient and safe to use.Credit cards are gaining popularity, even for buying small items. They are accepted almost everywhere, though not at fast food restaurants.A credit card enables the cardholder to buy things now and pay for them later. The cardholders get credit by promising to pay in the future for something they receive in the present. When the cardholder uses a credit card, the credit card company that issued the credit card pays the store. Later, a bill will be mailed to the cardholder by the credit card company for the amount he/she purchased. And finally, the cardholder then repays the company for the entire credit amount that he/she has used, by paying it back fully or through regular monthly payments. In case the cardholder fails to payback the entire balance, the bank can lawfully charge him/her with an interest fee on the unpaid amount.1、
