This is the small piece of plastic, not to be confused with a credit card , that works just like a check does. Don't let the Visa logo fool you! This card links directly to your checking account and withdraws funds right on the spot.  There are a number of disadvantages to debit cards when compared to credit cards, as credit cards have zero liability for fraudulent purchases and protects consumers from poor-quality or damaged merchandise.  When shopping online, we strongly recommend using a credit card instead of a debit card.
