[Jatinder]

Hello,

Can anyone recommend a good virtual credit card service? I googled and found a number of sites which offered this service. But I have no way of knowing which is more dependable and secure.

I want to purchase a software but the merchant does not accept PayPal. I do have a credit card but wanted to pay through PayPal since I already have some funds there.

Thanks,
Jatinder S. Thind

Get the money out of paypal to your bank account that you use to pay your credit card bill, and then use your credit card as normal. You will get the CC protection, and you should get the paypal money by the time your CC bill will be due.

I'd suggest you get a virtual card from a reputable big-name bank or from mastercard gift cards.

I can't get the money transfered directly to my bank. I have to get a check mailed to my address. The check can take anything from 15-20 days to reach me. This is not much of problem and over the years I have planned my finance accordingly.

It was just that I thought maybe virtual cards will help me keep my credit in check. I will look in the Mastercard gift card. Thanks for the link.

PayPal has a Virtual Debit Card on their site. You just need a bank and CC on your account and be based in the United States. It will take the money from your PayPal account.

I am from India. So I guess that leaves out PayPal. Any alternatives?
