None, that's why you don't see them in most European countries anymore. They use pre-loaded cards. |

What is the advantage to debit cards? ------------------------------- the advantage they have is the debit cards are more secure with Pin and Chip. A lot harder to clone. They use less credit cards because they are not accepted as many places as here. Friends have a small donut shop. Customers want to use a credit card for a 2 dollar purchase of coffee and donut. They would lose money on the sale as there is a $0.24 transaction fee minimum in place of a percentage charge. Same for Debit cards, they have to pay fee. Europe merchants would not accept a card in a small place like a donut shop. Lots of B&B's do not take credit cards. And if you get out of the bigger cities and towns lots of merchants do not accept cards at all. I use credit cards a lot as I get a percent back on the AMEX and miles on the Master Card. They never carry a balance, so not interest charges. |

We are WAY behind Europe in regards to personal finance like debit cards, etc. In what respect? What is the advantage to debit cards? We have debit cards because we don't need or want credit. Credit cards are one of the reasons the American economy is in the shape it is in, now. I will note, that a LOT of the unmanageable credit run up on credit cards is due to the uncontrolled expense of health care. http://bucks.blogs.nytimes.com/2012/...dit-card-debt/ The federal government should be run on debit cards. If you can't live within a realistic budget, you shouldn't be allowed credit in the first place. When is the last time the U.S. even had a budget? What a horrible example to set before the American people. |

In fact, it can be a boon because of the paybacks that come with its use. |
