No, they don't. One of the main features is being able to put in any billing information you want and they'll accept it. Typically a bank will validate the name and sometimes the address against your account on file. Privacy ignores it.
This IS a privacy enhancement in many cases.
- twelve40 4y agoNope. You have to go through KYC with them, give them your address, last 4 of social, dob, and yes, I got stuck on identity check too. Just because it didn't happen to you, doesn't mean it doesn't exist.
- junon 4y agoYou misread my comment. When I check out on a website using a card generated by Privacy.com, I can put any billing information into the checkout form on the site.
- prophesi 4y agoHuh, I've been using privacy.com and had no idea about this. Thanks! Keeping the blast radius of leaked billing info to privacy.com instead of a myriad of merchants sounds like a good deal.
- DerekBickerton 4y agoThis. You have to waive your privacy to privacy.com to get privacy on vendors/merchants. If I lived in the US I would happily waive it to privacy.com, since I buy stuff on e-commerce sites a lot. Enough times that I would be pissed if my personal info got leaked. Also being able to manage my card and lock it to specific vendors is sorely needed and should be a feature on all CC providers.
- junon 4y agoPrivacy is not binary though. It's not "either you have complete privacy, or none".
