A credit card is a plastic card to be used upon presentation by he cardholder to obtain mo[my, goods, or services, possibly under a line of credit established by the card issuer. The cardholder is billed for any outstanding balance.
Credit card customers am given a credit limit on the credit card account and can buy goods and services up to this amount. Normally, banks will set different credit lines to the different groups of cardholders. Every time the cardholder uses a credit card for purchasing, he/she must sign a sales slip in the presence of the seller, and the signature is then compared to the signature on the card. Copies of the sales slips have the details of the card and they also show the details and amount of the sale.
Each month the cardholder receives a statement from the bank which' details all the transactions in the month, together with the total amount outstanding and any minimum amount that needs to be paid. When the full balance is not settled each month, the cardholder is charged a compound interest on the outstanding balance, and this is supposed to provide the bank with a main source of income. Other two major sources of credit card services are the annual fee from the cardholders and the percentage of the sales revenue as the commission paid by the seller.
