Besides using paper money and coin, there are other forms of payment which are often safer and
more efficient. There are, for example, money ordered, bank draft, personal checks, traveler’s checks,
and credit cards. What for sure is that the number of credit card customer increasing.
What are credit cards? A plastic chips, a common shape of credit card, serves as legal payment in
place of paper money and coins. It issued by a bank to an individual for a set period of time. Same as
other forms of payment without using money or coin, there are some condition to become eligible for
using them. We must usually have a bank account, and for credit card, we will meet the required
minimum annual income. Based on our income, the issuer sets a credit limit which we could not exceed.
The credit card has many advantages. We can use it to shopping at supermarket, shopping center,
food outlet, music shop, for buying airline ticket, settle bills hotels, bookstore, registration fee for
conference anywhere in the country or abroad, even from internet at home. The most practical is, we
don’t need to carry cash…but actually, when we use a credit card, we buy on credit or ‘the buy-now-pay-
latter’s concept…just look to the familiar stickers of Visa, Master, and others cards, that’s another thing
you should check at an available place/shop your credit is accepted.

C.1. Read the passage and find the meaning of terms below!

This credit card has a time limit and has conditions so that it is not used carelessly and has a limit.

than the specified maturity because it will be subject to fines and can also be blocked
