Because you won't (and shouldn't) be doing any math operations with a credit card or debit card number, a string is your best option. And in the real world, these numbers are ideally encrypted as well, and I think that encryption is mainly performed on strings.

You could use a string or char*. Char* could be used if you want it to be a little more 'safe and secure'.
