I went looking through different virtual card providers for something that’d let me make a purchase I originally intended to use a prepaid for, yet they wouldn’t accept it. This led me to looking into Virtual Card providers as they’d work more consistently.

Problematically, Privacy.com seems overkill on what all it demands as far as KYC standards go, and some suggest IronVest as an alternative because it demands less. Yet, their privacy policy explicitly states they can share your information with advertising partners.

I haven’t encountered many providers, but seeing this trend, I wanna raise the question: Is there any virtual Card provider that really cares for privacy, and the privacy-minded?

    " i haven’t check their policy, but if they have a rock solid kyc and a name like ‘privacy’ i’d think they’d probably do a bit better at not sharing your data with others than, say, ironvest"

    First, isn’t “kyc” “know your client”? I don’t get what you mean with “a rock solid kyc”.

    Second, I generally find that when names that are very value focused, it is often a scam. Take “Truth Social” for instance. Using a name like Privacy would push me towards skepticism, not trust.
