When to Use Virtual Cards?

For complete security, you should use a virtual card every time you make a payment online. A virtual card offers an added layer of protection for your transactions, and you’ll have peace of mind knowing your sensitive financial information is kept safe from hackers and scammers. Here are some situations when using a Privacy virtual card is especially helpful:

When Starting Subscriptions & Trials

Use Privacy for peace of mind when starting a new subscription or a free trial. Forget to cancel? No problem. We’ll automatically decline any unwanted charges.

When Purchasing From a New Merchants

Shopping on a website that you’ve never used before or don’t fully trust? Create a single-use card that automatically closes after the transaction. If the merchant turns out to be fraudulent, our expert support team will manage the case on your behalf.

When Storing Your Card Info For Recurring Paymentss

Privacy Cards lock to the first merchant they’re used at and can’t be used elsewhere if stolen. In the event of a data breach, you can pause or close a Privacy Card anytime, anywhere without impacting your other cards.

When Managing Your Budget

Privacy lets you easily set and customize card limits, and we’ll automatically decline any transaction that exceeds the limit to keep your spending in check. You can also monitor spending activity in a convenient dashboard on your desktop and mobile phone.

How Privacy Cards Keep You Safe

To understand how Privacy virtual cards keep you safe, it helps to understand how traditional cards put you at risk.

Without Privacy Virtual Cards

When you pay a merchant without using a Privacy Card, you provide your credit or debit card number, CVV, and expiration date. This sensitive data can be intercepted or stolen by third parties, leaving you vulnerable to data breaches and fraudulent card activity.

Without Privacy Virtual Cards

Privacy Cards act as a secure layer between your payment information and the merchant. When a Privacy Card is used for a transaction, the merchant only has access to the Privacy Card’s unique card number; your actual financial info is never revealed and is safeguarded from data breaches. The Privacy Card can only be used at that specific merchant and, for even more protection, can be set to automatically close after the first transaction.

Why over 250,000 users choose Privacy

I have been using privacy.com for a few years. It makes online shopping safer and has saved me a few times from being overcharged. I use Privacy for all of my online shopping now. I love being able to pause a card because it’s an extra level of protection against accidental charges on xbox or iPhone from the kids.

Love the financial protection Privacy offers. Case in point: In September of 2022 I made an online purchase with a legitimate U.S. vendor using a Privacy card. In April 2023 someone tried to use that same card for a purchase in Australia. Privacy declined the purchase. Save yourself the headaches of stolen credit card numbers.

Using Privacy virtual cards puts my mind at ease when shopping online because I can update dollar limits as my monthly budget changes and prevent overcharges. Customer service has always been quite helpful and responsive when I have questions. Definitely recommended for those wanting extra financial safeguards in their shopping experience.
