I use virtual and disposable / one time use cards from Revolut which looks to have a similar function.

I like it, cos you can subscribe to something with a one time use card, get the thing you want and then the card automatically disappears once it's been used.

Thanks - will look into Revolut as well. Seems to be a good idea, but something I just learned about (Naomi Brockwell).

Wanted to at least get some opinions prior to looking into it...

Anyone else have any other thoughts?

I looked at that, but it's not available in the UK

Oh no! Then revolut and nostr:npub1yul83qxn35u607er3m7039t6rddj06qezfagfqlfw4qk5z5slrfqu8ncdu seems like a good fit

For Bitcoin cards, I use cypto.com and uphold.com

I also earn shitcoins which I cash out there as well.

I used to use a Coinbase card, I am ashamed to say 😂

For banking I use Xapo bank in Gibraltar. They charge $140 a year, but that is rising to $1,000 for new customers, so only worth it for large sums.

Also Revolut have just become a bank in the UK (they are currently on probation). And they offer Bitcoin buy / sell on their platform in limited amounts and at high fees.

There is the @Bitrefill's card, but didn’t test it.

Aren’t visa gift cards the same thing?

Not quite--the virtual cards (it seems) you can create on your own as you need them, cancel them as you need them, set spending limits, etc.

I suppose you could use gift cards for a similar function, but the flexibitliy of virtual cards seems to be much more robust.

These are just new to me, and I'd love to hear from someone who's using them....
