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?
Second comment in the thread, since I decided to go hunting for alternatives: https://discuss.privacyguides.net/t/alternatives-to-privacy-com-which-dont-require-a-u-s-phone-number/30692
edit 1: Okay I am trying out Halocard right now. What the actual fuck, it sends the verification code via Whatsapp to the phone number I provide.
edit 2: no wait I received it as a text. It looks like whatsapp has a service to send text to people.
