Best Answer

To swipe a credit card has two meanings. The most usual meaning is the action of passing a credit card through a machine which reads the card's magnetically encoded data. In British English swipe also means to steal, nick, pinch or purloin, so to swipe a credit card could also mean to steal it.

How Can you fix a cracked credit card?

If you mean the physical plastic credit card is cracked, you can use super glue or clear adhesive tape to fix it. However, it will be difficult to swipe it because the magnetic tape might have been damaged. I suggest that if you have a cracked credit card, bring it to the issuing company and have it replaced for a new card. That's what I did when my credit card was accidentally cracked; I had a replacement.
