I first heard of Privacy.com on the Darknet Diaries podcast. Since signing up I've found it gives me great peace of mind that I can cut off any of the payment methods for my subscriptions or online shopping when I'm not using them to prevent my money from being taken when I'm not planning on it. Thanks Privacy.com!

I Love Privacy! I started using them a while ago when my debit card number from my bank was stolen & used. I use Privacy cards for subscriptions and to pay bills. Thank You!
