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.

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).

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.

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

I decided to try Privacy and at first… I decided to try Privacy and at first it would allow me to use my telephone number to create my profile. Therefore, I had to use me wife's phone number and then I encountered another problem when I attempted to add my debit card to the account. My account was debited $2.87, but I kept receiving the following message "Only active accounts can activate funding cards. Please contact Privacy support email address" when I tried to confirm the amount. Additionally, It initially asked for the last four digits of my social security number, but later asked for my complete social. This was not what I anticipated after reading these reviews. This review would not allow me to include the email address that was shown when I tried to confirm the amount of money that was debited.
