Spanish term or phrase: tarjetas bancarias y similares
Hola!
En el contexto: "El pago de remuneraciones en tarjetas bancarias y similares no reduce el índice de delincuencia" ¿Cómo dejo la palabra similares? Creo que se refiere a los diferentes modos de pago que hacen que la persona no traiga dinero en efectivo en los bolsillos.

¿Alguna sugerencia? Gracias!!
