Episode notes
Use Mobile Wallets To Shield Card Data
- Use Apple Pay or Google Pay to mask card details from merchants and reduce exposure in data breaches.
- These services generate tokenized card numbers and act similarly to virtual card providers like Privacy.com.
Privacy Depends On Who You Distrust
- Choose a payment tool based on who you want privacy from: merchant or bank.
- Mobile wallets protect merchants and breaches, while masking bank-visible details is a different feature.
Check Local Fintechs For Digital Cards
- Consider Revolut or similar European fintechs for digital cards if Privacy.com isn't available in your country.
- Check regional plan limits because digital card features vary by location and tier.
