What is the difference between visa electron and visa debit cards?

I have visa electron debit card with cvv number for online transactions. But same web sites are not accepting electron cards. They are specifically saying visa cards. What is the actual difference between them? I am 24 years of age. Can I get visa card.|||visa electron is for people who have recently opened their account, or do not have a very high 'trust' status on their account. You can use it to withdraw cash from a machine but pretty useless for paying for things in a shop - most don't accept them.


To get upgraded, use your account like a good citizen, making regular deposits and withdrawals and then approach your bank in about 3 months time and ask if you can have a debit card.|||I don't think there's much difference Except with some online transactions they can charge you more with a debit or credit card...hence they don't except Electron.... Change sites.


Apart from that I use my electron for everything...paying for the shopping, withdrawing money and buying stuff on the web.... Its works in most european country's doing the same stuff. You can get a Normal Visa but it'll cost you more in charges.... Typical bank bulls***|||Electron is not a debit card, it's a cash card.
