Learning notes

Explanation

บัตร means “card” or “ticket,” and เครดิต is borrowed from the English word “credit.” Common combinations include ใช้บัตรเครดิต (“use a credit card”), จ่ายด้วยบัตรเครดิต (“pay by credit card”), and รับบัตรเครดิต (“accept credit cards”). The usual classifier for counting credit cards is ใบ, as in บัตรเครดิตหนึ่งใบ (“one credit card”).

Usage

It is commonly used when discussing payment methods in stores, restaurants, hotels, and online checkouts. It also appears when applying for a card or discussing credit limits, bills, and debt with a bank or card issuer.

Caution

This specifically means a credit card. A debit card, which generally takes money directly from a bank account, is บัตรเดบิต, while an ATM card is บัตรเอทีเอ็ม.
