    Hi.


    I want to buy something from website I don't fully trust.

    I seek to find some virtual/disposable card provider.
    Can you recommend one?


    My idea is simple. Create virtual credit card, which works as adebit card. Put 5 euros. Spend 5. If offender tries to overcharge me = no luck for him, as I already spend 5 euros.


    Any ideas are welcome!

    They all come with a card - for a one off purchase of 5 euro it really wouldn't be worth it
    Any issues with overcharging you contact the bank to reverse the charge.

    A few years ago AIB had a system where you could do just that, create virtual one off credit card numbers that were good for exactly one transaction and then became invalid. It was a great idea, albeit quite poorly executed, which really should have taken off but didn't and was discontinued.
