The first digit of a credit card indicates the type of credit card you are holding. Three is American Express, 4 is a Visa card, 5 is MasterCard, and 6 is Discover. The numbers that follow identify the issuing institution; indicate the type of card, whether debit or credit; and are numbers assigned to you by the issuing institution.

Debit Card vs Credit Card
Debit
The visa debit card is used for any purchase you would normally make with your credit card. The difference is that the visa debit can be used just like a debit card and a credit card. It has the versatility of both. You can make purchases with this card wherever visa is excepted, there are no restrictions.
Generally 16 digits in 4 groups
A debit card is a card that takes money straight out of the bank, however, a credit card lets you borrow money, but you must pay interest. So, a debit card does not build credit.
Yes, but the funds are still withdrawn from the account that the debit card it linked to ... in other words using the debit card as a credit card is still a point of sale transaction. You cannot be extended "credit" on a debit card.
No, credit cards are loans and debit cards are checks.
yes. just tell the redbox its a credit card, then just swipe your debit card.An Opposing Answer:A credit card is not the same as a debit card, and vice versa. If you process a debit card as a credit card when that debit card is not encoded as an alternative credit card, the transaction will fail.
You can use both debit card and a credit card to purchase goods and services. However, with a credit card your purchases are on credit, which means, the credit company who issued the card pays for the goods and services on your behalf. You then pay the credit company. On the other hand, the debit card is directly linked to your bank and every time you use the debit card to pay for your purchases, the amount is deducted to your money in the bank. Although there could be some deals that you can arrange with the bank regarding how the purchases are deducted and about your limits.
A "credit" card is a credit card.A prepaid credit card (secured) is not tied to a bank account and therefore while, like a debit card, you can only spend to the amount it has been loaded with (it will not provide credit), it is not a true debit card which IS linked into a bank account.
I prefer debit card but if you like the bank giving you money then paying it back then it credit card for you . If you have debit card is like your whole bank in your wallet :)
