Bank of China, Agricultural Bank of China, China Merchants Bank, China CITIC Bank, and Guangdong Development Bank all accept credit cards for military personnel.

Military personnel generally include three categories: active duty officers, professional soldiers and conscripts. Among them, active-duty military officers and professional soldiers are those with stable income and relatively fixed occupations, so banks usually accept their credit card applications. As active-duty conscripts have a time limit for retirement and their income is lower due to their non-fixed occupation, banks usually do not accept their credit card applications.
