Two virtual-card products with overlapping use cases but fundamentally different posture on identity, geography, and funding. Here's how they stack up.
Privacy.com is the established US-only virtual-card service backed by a US bank, funded from a US checking account, and gated by full US identity verification. CryptoCardy is the no-KYC alternative — global from day one, funded with cryptocurrency, with zero identity exposure to the issuer or to merchants. This is a side-by-side breakdown so you can pick the right tool for your situation.
| Özellik | CryptoCardy | Privacy.com |
|---|---|---|
| Identity verification (KYC) | None required | Full US identity check |
| Geographic availability | Worldwide | United States only |
| Funding source | Crypto (20 coins) | US bank account (ACH) |

| Apple Pay / Google Pay | All BINs | Limited support |
| Per-card transaction limit | $1,000 – $5,000 (BIN-dependent) | $5,000 |
| Per-card monthly limit | $10,000 – $50,000 (BIN-dependent) | Subject to ACH funding |
| Active cards per account | 20 | Unlimited (paid tier) |
| Issuance fee | $1.50/card | Free on free tier |
| Top-up fee | 2.0% on crypto deposits | 0% (ACH) |
| Monthly fee | $0 | $0 (free) – $10 (Pro) |
| Privacy from merchant | No identity exposed | Pseudonym, but linked to your bank |
| Tor / VPN access | Welcomed | Often blocked |
| Customer support | In-dashboard ticket (active card required) | Email + chat |
Take a typical SaaS-stack billing month: 5 subscriptions totalling $300 in spend, with one card refreshed mid-month.
For US-resident users with no privacy concerns, Privacy.com wins on raw cost. For anyone outside the US, anyone who can't link a US bank, or anyone who values not being identified to their card issuer, CryptoCardy's ~$7.50/month is the cost of a fundamentally different product.
Privacy.com is the right tool if: you live in the US, have a US bank account, are fine giving full identity to the issuer, and want the cheapest possible per-merchant burner card.
CryptoCardy is the right tool if: you live outside the US, don't have or don't want to link a US bank, want zero identity exposure, fund with crypto, or need a specific BIN tier for ads / SaaS / mobile wallets.
Many privacy-conscious US users actually run both: Privacy.com for low-stakes US-only merchants, CryptoCardy for international / sensitive use cases. The two are complementary as much as they are competitive.
No. The signup flow requires a US address, SSN, and a US bank account. International use of an already-issued Privacy.com card depends on the merchant — most accept it, but the card cannot be created or topped up from outside the US.
No. Funding is exclusively via US ACH.
Per-transaction, yes — Privacy.com's ACH funding is free, while CryptoCardy charges 2% on crypto top-ups. The premium pays for the no-KYC, no-US-bank-required posture.
Both use Visa's network primarily. Acceptance is functionally identical. CryptoCardy's multi-BIN offering gives you more options for specific high-stakes merchants (Meta Ads, Google Ads) where BIN tier affects approval rate.
CryptoCardy discloses zero identity to itself or to merchants. Privacy.com requires full US identity verification — that data exists in their systems. Each user weighs threat models differently.
Yes. They're completely independent products with no shared identity layer. Many users run both.
