How do I add a virtual card to my digital wallet?
Typically, to add a virtual credit card to a digital wallet, you simply need to add a new payment method and input your virtual card details.
How do I get a virtual credit card?
The process of getting a virtual card number varies by issuer. For instance, with Capital One, you can use virtual card numbers with Eno, while Amex requires that you go through your Google account and Citi lets you sign up online.
How do I use a virtual card at a store?
You can use a virtual card in stores that accept digital wallets like Apple Pay, Google Pay and Samsung Pay if you have added the virtual card number to the wallet.
Please leave your recommendations below, every recommendation will be taken in to account and is very much appreciated.
THANK YOU!
Here are the requirements:
Need to be able to use an alias on the card (i.e. no limitation to real name)
Must be able to fund the account via credit card OR bank ACH after microdeposit verification (i.e. no Plaid or similar shit service)
Must exist outside of a phone app (i.e., I won't install garbage into my phone)
Here's what I considered:
Site not to be named - the usual recommendation; it requires Plaid or a debit card to fund the account. I have no debit card and refuse to use Plaid, so no go
IronVest - their virtual card capability apparently was deactivated "temporarily" like 2 years ago
MySudo - requires a phone app, pass
Crypto.com - requires a phone app, pass
Revolut - apparently new accounts are not currently available to US citizens from what I can tell
Transferwise - uses real name; think they moved over to shit Plaid too
Does what I'm looking for exist, or should I just get a debit card and then begrudgingly give into the site that isn't allowed to be named?
Ready to set up FreedomPop for an extra low use phone and want to protect against unwanted charges. Not worried by the $.01 a month stuff just want to not get hit by a significant charge.
This will be a first experience with virtual cards. Would like to be able to easily have card number specific to a given source and set dollar limit.
Ideally not limited to using a browser extension.
I know privacy.com is one option but it looks like the free personal level limits you to ?? 12 ?? virtual numbers?
How does capital One compare (I don’t need another credit card ..)
I guess I really want to limit any max charge to protect FreedomPop.
