What is the difference between an open-ended credit account and a revolving account?

Answer

Only two types of credit card accounts in consumer credit. This is when a store or company issues a card with credit line say $1000. 1st is revolving credit which is like MBNA, Capital One, MasterCard, Visa, Orchard Bank, etc. Anything can be purchased at any store. A charge account is like Macy's, Foleys, Wal-Mart, etc. only items at that specific store can be purchased. Good Luck.
