A credit card number is a unique identifier. No need for additional qualifier. And more and more the trend is against having ppl make that choice. Saw a site recently that had it AFTER the card number field and it auto populated based on the first number in the card. Nice way to confirm/reassure without requiring me to do redundant work.

Hi all, Given that it's fairly easy to identify what kind of credit card someone is using (Visa/MC/Discover/etc), is there a good reason to require people to select the flavor they're using? I can imagine that people might get confused if they're not asked, but I'm curious as to whether there's any research for or against.
