Single-Use Card
A virtual card created for one transaction or merchant, then discarded to limit exposure.
Last updated:
A single-use (or burner) card is a virtual card you generate for a specific payment or subscription and then delete. If its details leak, they are worthless.
Single-use cards are popular for free trials and one-off purchases because they cap risk to a single merchant and a single charge.
