What kind of card is the Citizen Card

The Citizen Card is a government-issued multi-functional integrated circuit card (IC card) designed to facilitate citizens and their outsiders working locally to handle their personal social affairs and access public **** services. It combines various functions such as social security card, e-wallet card and bank card, providing cardholders with a comprehensive service experience.

First, the core functions of the Citizen Card include information storage, inquiry and transaction payment. Its account is based on the Citizen Card (or Social Security Card), which serves as a stored-value spending account that can be used for daily consumption and enjoying specific benefits and subsidies provided by the government. Meanwhile, the Citizen Card also features security measures such as password setting, nameability and loss, but does not support cash withdrawal.

It is worth mentioning that Hangzhou, the birthplace of the citizen card, launched its first citizen card in 2005, which not only covers social security services, but also extends a variety of practical functions such as personal information records, identification, electronic payment and credit payment. Its card is issued mainly to Hangzhou citizens who have participated in medical insurance, which not only facilitates them to handle governmental business, such as medical insurance, but also can be used for public **** transportation, small goods shopping and other urban public **** services.

In short, the Citizen Card is a multifunctional card that integrates identity verification, financial services and personal information management, and is designed to enhance the convenience of citizens' lives and the convenience of public **** services.
