Long story short, my bank/credit-union doesn’t support debit-visa and the only way I can make online payments through my bank account is via PayPal.

PayPal is a pain in the ass to work with and I would like to use Privacy.com’s virtual debit/credit cards however, they lack support for banks/credit-unions outside the US.

Note: I like to use my CC as less as possible hence why I use my bank for majority of my online payments.

    The only alternative that comes to mind is revolut. But i don’t know how they fare privacy-wise.

    I’ve used Wise (formerly TransferWise) for years. They have competitive exchange rates and acceptably low fees. They offer a debit card that works for me for some online vendors in México (I’m US), but doesn’t work for others. Your mileage may vary depending which country you’re trying to use it in.

    Interested as well. Couldn’t find an alternative that works in the EU a month ago when I last searched.

      Taking a look at both of these, Revolut seems more like a UK bank rather than something anyone can quickly signup for.

      Wise seems promising, the question lies whether or not their privacy & security is reputable.

      Thank you for this!
