A virtual card, sometimes called a temp card number or anonymous card number, is a credit or debit card number that can be created via website or mobile app, and does not accompany a physical card. Virtual cards can be used for online purchases to shield your personal and financial information. You can set a maximum spend limit or charge limit on the virtual card to prevent being overcharged. Virtual cards also lock out merchants to prevent the card from being used elsewhere if the merchant is a bad actor.
