Types of Credit and Debit Cards : Usual Types and Basics

 

Types of Credit and Debit Cards based on technology behind might not even support the ATM or Automated Teller Machine all over the World. Debit card is always linked with an account while Credit card may or may not be linked with an account – that translates to the fact – Debit card is basically unsafe as YOUR money is directly getting out in case of fraud. If you practically pay within the issuer’s stipulated time, there is no interest usually incurred.

During online or physical shopping payment terminal or point-of-sale (POS) system verifies the transaction whether the transaction will take place or not.

You can actually classify the types of Credit and Debit Cards based on technology by the outer look. MasterCard has the Chip Authentication Program (CAP) for secure e-commerce, Visa has the Dynamic Password Authentication (DPA) scheme and like-wise named cards bears a Chip looking like a SIM card’s contact points. These are called EMV cards as an abbreviation from Europay, MasterCard and Visa, this is try to set a global standard for inter-operation of integrated circuit cards.

Debit Cards usually lacks this chip. They have the magnetic strip only. These cards collectively known as Smart cards. They can be Contactless or Contact smart cards. Unfortunately except the dimension; that is 3?? × 2?? in in width and breadth, logos, the punched name, number and dates; a wild guess of the card only can be made to divide in to cards with EMV and cards with no EMV.

So basically, types of Credit and Debit Cards based on technology can roughly be estimated from the presence of the chip set. But, one country’s major outlets might not be backward or forward compatible. In these cases, transactions are declined. The technology in case of online payment is determined from the number (which is not possible to guess by normal users) by algorithm. Whole process is related to server and networking technology. There are several handshaking happens to validate a transaction. For example, usually the ATMs has no backspace on their keyboard. If you type one digit wrong and want to retype, in most cases that transaction is canceled. Note that, Card’s number is a part of the security chain.
