    i use privacy.com with a virtual card with a vendor lock and max limit. it also helps remind me when I’m spending too much there … 😂

      Yeah, but you lose out on credit card rewards, aka free money, going that route.

      I’ve used them a couple times where my privacy was worth more, and once where I didn’t want a company having a card to put recurring charges on

      Technically it costs money even if their fees are forgettable.

        That’s for a very good reason that they don’t allow that.

        If it was allowed it would be a wet dream for credit card churning
