privacy.com is an excellent security tool I've been using privacy.com for several years. Although at first I had a few hiccups due to my understanding of card-vendor lock-in, how/when they assess/determine my available funds, etc. using privacy.com is now a very fluid and seamless way to limit "blast radius" of CC usage. I have many monthly "subscription" based cards for things like streaming services. I create many on-demand 1-off burner cards for things that I might do only 1x annually, like charitable giving or school expenses. I have spread the word to many friends and family.

Fast, reliable, and secure I've been using Privacy ever since PayPal Key was discontinued, and I'm so glad I found it! Card creation is intuitive, card management is a breeze, and the ability to add transaction limits has saved me a lot of $$$. I would recommend this app to anyone shopping or paying bills online, or even over the phone, to keep your "real" card number secure.

Protect your payment card details and control allowable charges Privacy.com offers the best way to shield your actual payment card details from vendors and granular control of allowable charges (max amount, by vendor, one time use, etc). I use it constantly for vendors I don't intend to have ongoing relationships with (or don't fully trust with account details).

Great service, needs improvement Privacy is great for keeping your credit card numbers safe online. You can set limits and time periods, and issue different card numbers to different companies. Unfortunately they don't seem interested in being able to combine accounts--like one for work and one for home. It's a major pain to sign out and sign in to a different account. The reporting that is requires for accountants is absolutely dismal. Several suggestions on how to improve the reporting fell on deaf ears.

keepin your online shoping safe for real Having a way to create virtual credit card on the spot is just simply game changer. This way you can use payments on sites you don't fully trust and be safe. App and website work seamlessly and fast. I just wish the UI could be better/modern
