Credit cards are divided into credit cards and quasi-credit cards. Credit card refers to the credit card issued by the bank, which gives the cardholder a certain credit limit, within which the cardholder can spend first and then repay. A quasi-credit card refers to a quasi-credit card issued by a bank. The cardholder deposits a certain amount of reserve fund according to the regulations. When the balance of the reserve fund account is insufficient to pay, it can be overdrawn within the prescribed credit limit. Credit cards generally refer to credit cards.
The earliest credit card appeared at the end of 19. From 65438 to 1980s, the so-called credit card was developed in British clothing industry, followed by tourism and business departments. However, at that time, the card could only be used for short-term commercial credit, and the money had to be paid back as needed. There was no long-term default and no credit line.
Credit card is one of the fastest growing financial services. It is an electronic currency that can replace the traditional cash circulation in a certain range.
Credit cards have both payment and credit functions. Cardholders can use it to buy goods or enjoy services, and they can also use credit cards to obtain certain loans from card issuers.
The invention of credit card is like a double-edged sword, which can solve the temporary economic crisis. However, the purpose of issuing credit cards is to make money. Once the interest-free repayment time is exceeded, high interest will be charged, usually five ten thousandths of interest per day.
Credit cards basically have an annual fee, but they basically have an annual fee-free policy. For example, CCB can be exempted as long as it is brushed three times a year; But if you don't swipe your card to the bank the specified number of times within a year, you need to charge an annual fee.
Credit cards are basically password-free by default, so when they are lost or stolen, they are easily stolen by others, causing unnecessary troubles or losses; But in fact, credit cards can also be charged by passwords-it depends on how you manage your credit cards. Of course, many people have not cancelled their credit cards because of their lack of experience in this field, and some lawless elements have reapplied for credit card overdraft, which is not worth it.

The contents of the audit mainly include whether the contents of the application form are true, evaluating the credit degree of the applicant, and auditing the relevant information of the personal guarantor.
After receiving the authorization notice, the issuing bank will issue an authorization instruction according to the balance of the cardholder's deposit account and the agreement that the bank allows overdraft, and reply whether to agree to the transaction.
