Privacy.com style services for non-US

I am an EU citizen and I have heard about privacy.com for virtual cards. As I understand it is only for those US bank accounts and Credit Union accounts. Are similar services available for EU citizens where we can get disposable virtual cards?

Have you tried a bank in your country? Mine have been providing virtual cards for over a decade.
Or Revolut. Or N26.

Revolut is an option. And hopefully soon we’ll also get GNU Taler, which isn’t exactly a virtual card system, but is a private payment system. The customer is kept anonymous while the seller’s income is transparent.

Revolut does this, I’ve heard not to trust it with much of your money (apparently hacked accounts or something), and I dunno how the company is privacy wise.

But you have unlimited single use virtual cards with an account on it

I göt Revolut and uses their virtual cards all the time. I have one virtual card and also unlimited disposable cards.

Had some problems with my app because I run LineageOS but could spoof that so the app doesn’t complain anymore.

Icant say that I have 100% knowledge about there privacy standpoint. But it works good and I don’t have to pay anything and I can transfer money from cryptobrokers without any questions (which my former bank didn’t like 🤣)
