If you have a checking account, you can purchase items online with your debit card as long as the money is in the bank. You have to be 18 to have your own credit card, but if you are an authorized user on your parents' card, you can make transactions without being 18.

You can get a debt card to pull from your checking account. However under 18 the only way to obtain a credit card is through your parents as an additional card holder.
