This magnetically coded strip can easily be read, written, deleted or changed .
The Russian Bank Card market had witnessed a decline in the past few years, due to the global economic crisis. This is in contraction to the scenario of the global Bank Card market, which is experiencing a steady double digit growth since early 2010 . This growth is majorly driven by the rise in middle class household income, changes in the consumer spending pattern and consumers growing preference towards the use of bank card over cash. Besides, the use of bank card also provide benefits such as reward points and discounts offered by the Banks. This has created a huge demand for payment cards, which is providing positive growth opportunities for card issuers, suppliers and manufacturers.

Debit card gives the consumer access over his own money without going to bank, whereas Credit Card helps consumer to get credit from the bank as per their requirement and provides a more secure way of having transactions.
Despite the positive growth rates, the Russian Bank Card market is facing some challenges such as security, infrastructure availability, etc.
