What Is a Credit Card?

A credit card is a payment tool issued by banks or financial institutions that allows individuals to borrow funds to make purchases, with the promise of repaying the money later, often with interest. Credit cards are widely used for both online and offline transactions around the world and are one of the primary payment methods accepted on Beanybux.com.

How a Credit Card Works
When you use a credit card, you are essentially borrowing money from the issuing bank. Here’s how it works:
1.    Credit Limit – Each card has a set maximum limit you can borrow.
2.    Purchases – You can make purchases up to your limit.
3.    Billing Cycle – Every month, you’ll receive a statement showing what you owe.
4.    Minimum Payment – You can pay the full balance or a minimum portion.
5.    Interest Charges – If the full balance is not paid, interest is applied to the remaining amount.

Common Credit Card Providers
Credit cards are issued by financial institutions and are typically branded with major networks like:
•    Visa
•    MasterCard
•    American Express (AMEX)
•    Discover
These cards can be used on most websites, ATMs, and physical stores that accept card payments.

Benefits of Using Credit Cards
•    Secure Transactions – Credit cards offer fraud protection and chargeback rights.
•    Trackable Spending – Transactions are documented and easy to monitor.
•    Accepted Worldwide – Useful for international purchases and travel.
•    Build Credit History – Regular, responsible use helps improve your credit score.
•    Rewards Programs – Many cards offer cash-back, points, or travel benefits.
