If you're focused on creating card(debit/credit) number input type. Then clean an easily manageable jQuery version as follows:

/*..............................................................................................
* jQuery function for Credit card number input group
......................................................................................................*/
            // make container label of input groups, responsible
            $('.card-box').on('focus', function(e){
                $(this).parent().addClass('focus-form-control');
            });
            $('.card-box').on('blur', function(e){
                $(this).parent().removeClass('focus-form-control');
            });
            $('.card-box-1').on('keyup', function(e){
                e.preventDefault();
                var max_length = parseInt($(this).attr('maxLength'));
                var _length = parseInt($(this).val().length);
                if(_length >= max_length) {
                    $('.card-box-2').focus().removeAttr('readonly');
                    $(this).attr('readonly', 'readonly');
                }
                if(_length <= 0){
                    return;
                }
            });
            $('.card-box-2').on('keyup', function(e){
                e.preventDefault();
                var max_length = parseInt($(this).attr('maxLength'));
                var _length = parseInt($(this).val().length);
                if(_length >= max_length) {
                    $('.card-box-3').focus().removeAttr('readonly');
                    $(this).attr('readonly', 'readonly');
                }
                if(_length <= 0){
                    $('.card-box-1').focus().removeAttr('readonly');
                    $(this).attr('readonly', 'readonly');
                }
            });
             $('.card-box-3').on('keyup', function(e){
                e.preventDefault();
                var max_length = parseInt($(this).attr('maxLength'));
                var _length = parseInt($(this).val().length);
                if(_length >= max_length) {
                    $('.card-box-4').focus().removeAttr('readonly');
                    $(this).attr('readonly', 'readonly');
                }
                if(_length <= 0){
                    $('.card-box-2').focus().removeAttr('readonly');
                    $(this).attr('readonly', 'readonly');
                }
            });
            $('.card-box-4').on('keyup', function(e){
                e.preventDefault();
                var max_length = parseInt($(this).attr('maxLength'));
                var _length = parseInt($(this).val().length);
                if(_length >= max_length) {
                    return;
                }
                if(_length <= 0){
                    $('.card-box-3').focus().removeAttr('readonly');
                    $(this).attr('readonly', 'readonly');
                }
