The cards can be linked to specific vendors so that no one else can charge it. And you can also block the individual virtual cards in the scenario that they refuse to cancel auto-billing. It's more of an on/off limit than a granul

Is Starlink available in your area? Their satellites are in a much lower orbit (not GEO) and so the latency is much lower. It is supposed to be around $100 per month with a $500 up-front cost for the terminal.
