Virtual Cards
Virtual cards built for how you spend online
MernaPay virtual cards give you dedicated card numbers for online checkout—without exposing your primary bank details. Fund from your digital wallet, set limits, freeze instantly, and keep subscriptions under control.
Overview
What are virtual cards?
Virtual cards are payment credentials designed for digital commerce. Instead of typing the same card number everywhere, you issue purpose-built cards from your MernaPay account.
When you shop online, every merchant receives card details that can be stored in their systems. A virtual card limits that exposure by giving each merchant—or each purchase type—its own number. If a retailer is breached or a trial converts unexpectedly, you replace one card instead of reissuing your entire bank card.
MernaPay connects virtual cards to your digital wallet, so you fund spending with stablecoins and manage everything from one dashboard. That makes virtual cards practical for freelancers, remote workers, and anyone who buys software, ads, travel, or digital goods internationally.
Subscriptions
Assign a card per subscription so price increases, failed renewals, and cancellations stay isolated.
Privacy
Keep your primary funding source off merchant files. Issue and retire numbers as your spending patterns change.
