Credit Card
A payment card that allows the cardholder to borrow funds from the issuer to pay for purchases or withdraw cash.
More Details
A credit card is a type of financial product that allows you to borrow money from a lender in order to make purchases or withdraw cash. When someone uses a credit card, they are given a certain amount of credit, which is essentially a loan that they can use to make purchases or withdraw cash up to a certain limit.
Example
If you want to buy $60 worth of groceries but only have $10 on hand, you can use your credit card to pay for the purchase. This total will be paid back to the credit card company later when you pay your bill.
