Meh.. My Citi Card has one-time use codes with the benefit of the normal protections of having a credit card (insurance, fraud prevention, customer service, etc). This problem is solved for people that care to solve it.

I'm not trying to shill for Citi, I'm actually dropping them for other BS, but I assume other cards have it as well.

Thanks, I didn't know that. May be something which hasn't turned up in Germany yet, or my quaint old bank has never come around to implement this. I'll go and see if there's a way to get that for my credit card.

Thanks for the info.

It's a common feature of Swedish banks as well, so at least it's available elsewhere in Europe. My bank calls it "e-cards"

Yes others banks have this feature as well
