A daily money search before shopping and travel. This page has 100 important questions and answers. Original explainer for daily search — not a government login or live tracker.
A debit card spends money that is already in your bank account (or an approved overdraft). A credit card borrows from the issuer up to a limit; you repay by the due date or you pay interest. Both can be Visa/Mastercard plastic — the network logo is not the same as debit vs credit.
Debit is harder to overspend if you have no overdraft, but a stolen debit card can empty the account until the bank reverses it. Credit can build a credit history if you pay in full, and it often has stronger chargeback rules — but revolving interest is expensive.
EMI on a credit card is a loan product, not “free.” PIN, OTP, and tap-to-pay still need the same care as UPI.
