  • For new users: you can start adding funds and shopping online while you wait for your physical card to arrive in the mail

  • For all users: no need to budge from your couch to make an online purchase! Just use your Virtual card instead of getting up to find your wallet. Plus, it uses a different card number to help protect your physical card number when you’re shopping or booking services online
