A charge card is a card that provides a payment method enabling
the cardholder to make purchases which are paid for by the card
issuer, to whom the cardholder becomes indebted.
The cardholder is obligated to repay the debt to the card issuer
in full by the due date, usually on a monthly basis, or be subject
to late fees and restrictions on further card use.
The difference between the credit and charge card is that in case
of charge card, the amount becomes payable immediately on the
debit to the account.
