DEBIT/ Credit card vs.

Internet banking
Most people are very familiar with how a bank operates. The concept is very simple; you take your money to the bank and they will keep it safe for you and you can collect it later. When you need to withdraw funds from your account, you can use a debit card or a standard ATM card. You can use the debit card for any online or retail shopping and the ATM cards work in any ATM machine. You can also use credit card to purchase but you are liable to pay the dues by the end of the month. With transactions becoming more and more online nowadays internet banking has come into picture. Internet banking allows customers to perform a wide range of banking transactions electronically via the bank's Web site.
