An ATM card (also known as a bank card, client card, key card, or cash card) is a card issued by a financial institution, such as a bank, credit union, or building society, that can be used in an Automated Teller Machine (ATM) for transactions such as: deposits, withdrawals, obtaining account information, and other types of transactions, often through interbank networks.
It can also be used on improvised ATMs, such as merchants' card terminals that deliver ATM features without any cash drawer (commonly referred to as mini ATMs). These terminals can also be used as Cashless scrip ATMs by cashing the fund transfer receipt at the merchant's Cashier.

Famous quotes containing the word card:
“What is the disease which manifests itself in an inability to leave a party—any party at all—until it is all over and the lights are being put out?... I suppose that part of this mania for staying is due to a fear that, if I go, something good will happen and I’ll miss it. Somebody might do card tricks, or shoot somebody else.”
—Robert Benchley (1889–1945)
