# Privacy.com

> Privacy.com provides virtual payment cards that protect your real card information when you shop online. Create cards that lock to a single merchant, set spend limits, and pause or close cards anytime. Used by 250,000+ customers in the US, with over $3B processed.

## How It Works

Privacy Virtual Cards act as a secure layer between your actual debit or credit card and the merchants you pay. Each card gets a unique number, so your real payment info is never exposed to data breaches or fraud. Cards lock to a single merchant and can't be used elsewhere if stolen.

## Features

- **Spend limits:** Set a max amount on any card so you're never charged more than you authorize. Useful for subscriptions and recurring bills.
- **Pause and close:** Pause or close any card instantly without affecting your other cards.
- **Browser extensions and mobile apps:** Available for Chrome, Safari, Edge, Firefox, iOS, and Android.
- **Security:** PCI-DSS compliant, SOC 2 Type II certified, 256-bit encryption.
