Debit card

[Sonia]

A [debit]/check is a card (made by Visa, [Mastercard], and others. Made avaliable to you mostly by banks) That acts very similiar [like a credit card], but instead of borrowing money from those greedy bastards, money is automatically deducted right from your checking account instead when you make a purchase. Acts like a cash card.
You need a checking account and cash in your checking account to use a debit/check card. Checking accounts also have a monthly fee.
Visa and Mastercard debit cards can be used to purchase items online. They can also be used with ATM machines to get cash from your checking account.
