Help I know almost nothing about master cards but I need one

So I want to sell somethings on Amazon but they will only transfer the money into a credit card account (master card, visa, etc) is there anything I should know before doing this? What type should I go for?
all I want to do is transfer my money.

    This doesn't sound right to me - credit cards should be for buying things, not selling. It's not usual to credit payments to them (other than 'balance transfers' offered by the card companies or refunds of previous purchases) and not easy/usual to release the credit balance as cash...

    Hopefully someone who sells on Amazon will read this and be able to clarify how the system works...

    ask your bank as they know how you deal with your current a/c

    Are you sure youve got this right? I often sell things on amazon, the money gets put into my bank account. I have never been given the option of having the money loaded onto a credit card!
