Such cards are known by a variety of names including bank cards, ATM cards, client cards, key cards or cash cards. There are a number of types of payment cards, the most common being credit cards, debit cards, charge cards, and prepaid cards.

These accounts may be deposit accounts or loan or credit accounts, and the card is a means of authenticating the cardholder.

PINs may be used to authenticate banking systems with cardholders, governments with citizens, enterprises with employees, and computers with users, among other uses.
