User Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 10.0; Win64; x64; rv:101.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/101.0
Steps to reproduce:
Using Firefox 101.0.1 with English (GB):
goto about:preferences
goto Privacy & Security
Actual results:
Under Logins and Passwords:
'Autofill credit cards'
'Saved Credit Cards...'
etc.
Same terminology appears in the docs:

Expected results:
This functionality saves 'payment cards', not 'credit cards'.
'Payment card' is a superset of which credit card is a member. Debit cards are another member, something I have saved and use with autofill.
Users who are unaware of the US English convention to describe all payment cards as credit cards may not understand that this functionality works for their cards too. Debit cards are the majority of payment cards by instance and by usage in the UK:

Possible fixes:
- s/credit card/payment card/
- s/credit card/payment card/ for English (GB). Include English (CA)?

The Bugbug bot thinks this bug should belong to the 'Toolkit::Form Autofill' component, and is moving the bug to that component. Please correct in case you think the bot is wrong.

The bug assignee is inactive on Bugzilla, so the assignee is being reset.
