credit card consumption is a non-cash transaction payment method, and it is not necessary to pay cash when spending, and the repayment will be made on the Billing Date.
Credit cards are divided into credit cards and quasi-credit cards. Credit cards refer to credit cards with a certain credit limit within which the cardholder can spend first and then repay. Quasi-credit card refers to a quasi-credit card in which the cardholder deposits a certain amount of reserve fund as required, and when the balance of the reserve fund account is insufficient to pay, it can be overdrawn within the specified credit limit. The credit card generally refers to a credit card.
In most cases, citizens who have full capacity for civil conduct (citizens aged 18 or above in Chinese mainland) and have a certain direct source of income can apply for a credit card from the issuing bank. Sometimes, legal persons can also act as applicants.
people who apply for credit cards can be divided into units and individuals. The applicants should be institutions, enterprises and business units, foreign-funded enterprises and individual industrial and commercial households with independent legal personality within the territory of China. Each unit can get a main card and several (5-1) supplementary cards when applying for a credit card. Individuals applying for credit cards must have a fixed occupation and a stable source of income, and provide guarantees to banks. The forms of guarantee include personal guarantee, unit guarantee and personal fund guarantee.
generally, the application method is to fill in a credit card application form, and the contents of the application form generally include the name, basic information, economic status or income source, guarantor and its basic information of the applicant. And submit certain copies of certificates and certificates to the issuing bank. After the customer fills in the application form truthfully, he should submit the completed application form and relevant credit certificate. The application form is accompanied by a contract for using a credit card. The applicant authorizes the issuing bank or relevant departments to investigate its relevant information, submit a statement on the authenticity of the information, the privacy protection policy of the issuing bank, etc., and must have the applicant's autograph.
usually, the bank will examine the applicant's various information and economic situation according to the application materials to judge whether to issue a credit card to the applicant. The factors considered are the applicant's past credit history, the applicant's known assets, professional characteristics, etc. The specific factors and process of the issuer's audit are trade secrets, which are generally difficult for the outside world to understand. The standards of different card-issuing banks are also different. Therefore, the same materials may have different credit lines and different types of credit cards in different banks, and even some banks will pass the examination and some banks will refuse to issue them.
