Can a debit card be used for online purchases?

Yes, a debit card can be used for online purchases, just like a credit card. When making an online purchase, you will typically be asked to enter your card details, including the card number, expiration date, and security code. As long as your debit card is connected to a bank account with sufficient funds, the transaction will go through. Some debit cards may require additional authentication, such as a onetime password or PIN, for added security.
