the only difference is if you have little to no money left in your debit card, it won't get charged unlike a credit card.

You can get a debit card as long as you have a checking account

You don't need a checking account to have a debit card or a credit card. I have a savings account and I've had a debit card since I was 12. If you're under 18 you'll need a cosigner to get a real credit card but you can get a debit credit card that's directly linked to your bank account.
