Charge Card

Categories: Banking, Regulations, Bonds

A charge card is just like a credit card—but minus the credit. You can use it to go on a trip to Vegas or to shop at your favorite stores. But once you get to the end of the month, you have to pay off the whole thing. You can't carry a balance on this card and pay it later.
