Please see below:
The translation is OK and they have the same meaning.
But I think the two transaltions is correct, but is not accurate.
If the card is credit card:
Traditional Chinese: 選擇信用卡類型
simplified Chinese: 选择信用卡类型
If the card is common bank card:
Traditional Chinese: 選擇銀行卡類型
simplified Chinese: 選擇銀行卡類型

Yes.
In fact, if you don't want to distinguish the two cards, you may leave the translation as is.

Sorry, I made a mistake.
debit card:
Traditional Chinese: 金融卡
simplified Chinese: 借记卡
I mean that the common bank card is debit card, but bank card include the credit card and debit card.
So I think the best translation is:
Traditional Chinese: 選擇銀行卡類型
simplified Chinese: 选择银行卡类型
But I think the two transaltions is correct, but is not accurate.
If the card is credit card:
Traditional Chinese: 選擇信用卡類型
simplified Chinese: 选择信用卡类型
If the card is common bank card:
Traditional Chinese: 選擇銀行卡類型
simplified Chinese: 選擇銀行卡類型

選擇卡的類型
I think the translation is okay, you may leave your translation as it is.
In Taiwan, we don't usually use this phrase "銀行卡."
Our common bank card is debit card (金融卡).
Debit card is 金融卡.
Credit card is 信用卡.
When people say "銀行卡," based on our understanding, we would think you are talking about credit card "信用卡."
Below are two links to show you that banks in Taiwan use "bank card (銀行卡)" as "credit card (信用卡)."
In Hong Kong and Macau, debit card is 借記卡.
