Linguistic Origin & Historical Etymology
The term is a compound formed in the late 20th century from 'bank' (derived from the Italian 'banca', meaning bench or money-changer's table) and 'card' (derived from the Greek 'χάρτης' via Latin 'charta'). It emerged during the rapid expansion of electronic banking and plastic money in the 1970s and 1980s to denote a standardized card issued by a financial institution.
