The answer

It is permissible to obtain and use these cards, and the fee that the bank takes for issuing them is lawful. It is permissible to purchase whatever goods and items you wish with them. It is permissible to purchase gold, silver, and other usurious commodities with this card if the amount is deposited directly into the seller's account, or is recorded on a document containing the cardholder's details, serving as a certified check.
