Different debit cards may have different functionalities. Some may
be just an ATM card and can only be used for cash withdrawal. Others
may also be used for point-of-sale purchases at certain merchants in your
own country, such as grocery stores, retail stores, petrol stations
and restaurants. Some debit cards may even be used internationally at
both ATMs or merchant locations overseas. You can use your card at any
merchant displaying your card's brand name or logo, or even on the
internet. They offer an alternative to carrying cash or sending checks.
