Girokarte is a synonym for Debitkarte, just like in France or Swiss Romade one would say carte bleue instead of carte debit, in Portugal Multibanco instead of cartão de débito,...

As for the rest, I guest we are wasting each other's time discussing this any furher.

> Girokarte is a synonym for Debitkarte

I'm not sure how to handle this because it's both incorrect in technical language (Girocards are exclusive to a particular payment infrastructure that only exists in Germany, unless partnered with a separate payment infrastructure, but the co-branded payment infrastructure is only used outside of Germany [1]) as well as incorrect with respect to my experience with everyday language, including all of the links I've provided including from official government sources.

But I agree on one thing: it's a waste of time to keep talking about this.
