c. seller receives cash sooner than if credit is granted directly to the customers

d. may allow seller to increase sales volume

Explanation:

When a customer uses a credit card, the bank that issued the card pays the seller immediately, and later, the bank recovers the money plus interest from the customer.

So this method allows for a faster collection of cash (basically immediatly) than if the seller granted the credit directly to the customer.

Credit cards also allow seller to increase sales volume because many people lack the cash necessary to pay down the full value of the purchase.
