Basic Introduction:1In March, 985, Zhuhai Branch of Bank of China, located in the coastal open special zone, established Zhuhai Credit Card Co., Ltd., the first credit card in China, and issued the first "BOC Card". This card was only used in Zhuhai at that time, and its circulation was very small.

Description: This card is marked with cloth coins from the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period in the upper left corner, and the words "China Bank" are written on it with a small seal. One third of the top half of the card has a red background, and there is a white spacer in the middle to separate the top and bottom half. The whole lower part is silver (the gold card is gold), and the card number and expiration date are printed on the lower part, but there is no cardholder's name. This design of "BOC Card" later became a standard model, which was imitated and used for reference by ATM cards of many banks.
