en Had many instances in the past where I've had to cancel a credit card because of predatory companies, so Privacy.com seemed like the answer. My short time so far using it has already saved me a lot of money and trouble including a stolen card number from my contacts merchant. I'm now a subscriber as these guys have become absolutely worth it. I use this chrome extension and safari extension. Works well and makes it very easy handle card entries.

en Easy to set up. It has never not worked. As someone who lives on his <$900 monthly retirement income and is careful what he spends money on, the free service is perfectly adequate to my needs.

en Hands down the best service I have subscribed to in the last 10 years, aside from Proton products. I've used Privacy for over 5 years, and I can't imagine life without it now. There's no greater feeling of freedom than being able to create cards on-the-fly for individual purposes with specific rules/limitations and not have to worry about using my real debt or credit cards online. Aside from the security aspect, the convenience aspect is incredible, as well. The browser add-in can autofill many checkout fields automatically! Since, it's called "Privacy", it's also no surprise that the improvement to personal privacy is great! When producing bank statements for things like mortgages, I don't have to worry about some random person reading through all my bank transactions because 95% of all my transactions just say, "Privacy.com". Freaking awesome! I cannot recommend this service and extension enough.

en The Privacy Chrome extension is a game-changer for anyone looking to protect their personal information while shopping online. The ability to create credit card aliases is not only innovative but also incredibly user-friendly. The extension seamlessly integrates into the checkout process, making it convenient to use on various websites. Overall, the Privacy extension is a must-have for anyone who values their online security. Highly recommended for safe and hassle-free online shopping!

en I have been looking for the functionality that is provided by privacy.com for a couple of years. When I heard about privacy.com I started using it and have been very happy with the service. In fact my only complaint is that they aren’t adding features fast enough (virtual debit cards as opposed to virtual credit cards is the next feature I hope they add soon). It has already saved me several hundred dollars and I have only been using it for 5 months. The comfort of being able to create a virtual credit card that I can cancel in a heartbeat, if a company tries to misbehave, is wonderful. I have used the virtual card capability to “try” a service or a subscription several times and once the initial charge goes through I can put the creation of new charges on pause. Then if I decide I like the service I can take the card off pause or completely disable the virtual card and never have to worry about being charged again. I love how I can limit the amount that is charged by a subscription service every month. This capability has helped me track and control my subscription expenditures more closely and I have already caught one subscription service trying to misbehave by charging me twice for a subscription in the same month. It takes some effort to get everything switched over but, I have converted everything I can to virtual cards. I can’t say enough good about how privacy.com has changed my financial routine for the better.

en So far so good. Great way to have peace of mind especially when signing up for trials. Set up a dedicated virtual credit card with a limited amount of funds when you sign up for a trial subscription you're not sure you want long-term. I turned to this after missing a "cancel my trial" date and getting dinged $120 for a subscription I don't want.

en So easy to use! Having a virtual number tied to each merchant is so useful and really gives peace-of-mind when visiting unknown sites. Privacy.com was quick to resolve in my favor the one transaction I disputed. Strong recommend.
