Checks and credit cards both are ways to spend money. You must put money into the bank before you can write checks. Then you buy things by writing your checks. The banker subtracts the checks’ dollar amounts from the money you gave him. You can keep writing checks until all the money you gave the banker is spent.
Credit cards are used to say that you will pay later. You just write your name to buy things. Then the letter carrier brings you a monthly bill. This bill has all of the things you bought during the month listed on it. You have to pay all or part of this bill. If you pay only part of the bill, you are charged interest. Interest means you are charged extra money for not paying all of the bill.
