The first credit card to be issued commercially was called the 'Diners Club' card. It was created in 1950 by Frank McNamara, who came up with the idea after forgetting his wallet while dining out with clients. The Diners Club card allowed customers to pay for meals at participating restaurants on credit, and was widely adopted by business travelers in the United States.
