I'm wondering about the safety of different payment methods, specifically, whether it's safer to use a card or a phone for payments. I want to understand which option provides better security for my transactions.

    The security of debit cards can be compromised if certain details are known to unauthorized individuals.

    Specifically, knowledge of the card number, expiration date, and the three-digit security code is sufficient for someone to use your debit card.

    Unlike debit cards, digital wallets utilize an encryption key for added security.

    This encryption key is unique and only known to the user, making it difficult for others to access the wallet.

    Even if someone were to steal your phone, which may contain your digital wallet, they would still be unable to access it without the encryption key.
