    The main difference is the way the card works and where the money comes from. Debit cards can be used as either a debit card or credit card. Credit cards can only be used as a credit card. Debit cards do not carry a line of credit. The purchases made with a debit card can not exceed the amount of money a person has in their bank account. This is the main difference between a credit and debit card.

    Credit card means there is a limit to purchase and it is a loan from bank,

    Debit card means it is like an ATM card. we can purchase until money ends in our bank account. (which means you use your own money)

    Sampath webcard is a Virtual credit card. we cannot use it for normal purchase, But we can use it for internet purchases. Usually virtual credit cards expire within 24 hours and can't load it again and again. but this card has a 1year expiring period and can load as much as we need.


    Visa means a company who offer credit cards (MasterCard, American Express, Discover etc.. these are also credit card offering companies)

    Credit Card = Enjoy others money till the credit card is seized by the company.

    Debit Card= You can't the above because you need to have your own money in bank before you swipe.

    Credit Card ,Debit card ,sampath web card ,visa card,monada me card tika ??

    can any one explain that??

    :(:(:(:(:(:(

    There are several networks of eMoney systems from different companies like VISA, MasterCard, American Express, Discover.
    But in SL we mostly offered a VISA card. But Master and AMEX is also available in SL.

    There are two types of these cards,
    • Credit Card
    • Debit Card

    Credit cards offer a loan to you and you dont have to have money in the bank (Or even a bank account). You pay the amount as you pay a loan. If you delay to pay, you have to pay a intrest too.
    But debit cards help you to pay or withdraw money from what you have in your account. So there is no interest. Ex are Sampath WEB card, Commercial VISA debit shopping card, Seylan VISA debit card, Seylan Pre-paid cash card.

    Some more

    in addition there are some more further sub types,
    • Embosed cards
    • Non embosed (Electronic pay only) cards

    With the first type you can do "Card not Seen" transactions, where the dealer does not see your card; ie internet transactions
    with the second type you always have to swipe the card with the terminal or use with a ATM machine. So you can do shopping at supermarkets, but not on internet.

    Most banks offers the second type as debit cards, so with usual debit cards you cannoth buy online.
    But Sampath offers the first type as a debit card in SAMPATH WEB CARD.

    Need any more details?
