samlowry Posted May 14, 2021 Share Posted May 14, 2021 Which service provide such service for Thai residents and support: - instant issue of such a card - instant disabling/enabling of the card - instant destroying of the card - any/flexible billing name/address - limit on transaction - card is not prepaid There are lots of such services online but some of them aren't service all countries (for example, https://privacy.com/ is for US residents), some of them doesn't have all listed reqs.

fdsa Posted May 14, 2021 Share Posted May 14, 2021 4 hours ago, samlowry said: - card is not prepaid I'm afraid this requirement discards all the previous ones. The virtual cards are produced with "prepaid" or "debit" type for a reason. I haven't met any virtual card provider which issues cards that are detected as "real" credit cards, and will be grateful if anyone shares a link. you could check the type of card here: https://www.bindb.com/bin-database I've just checked two cards: a real plastic card issued by one of the "virtual card" providers is detected as prepaid, and a virtual card issued by my bank is detected as debit.

samlowry Posted May 14, 2021 Author Share Posted May 14, 2021 By "not prepaid" I meant "debit". Prepaid it the card with fixed amount, which is locked on card balance, some of such prepaids have this amount fixed even, and it's impossible to add any amount to balance (or withdraw). Such cards are quite popular among such service providers. I meant - I don't want such cards. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fdsa Posted May 14, 2021 Share Posted May 14, 2021 well, then its easy - just keep trying different providers and you'll find one with "debit" type cards :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Barley Posted May 14, 2021 Share Posted May 14, 2021 The already mentioned revolut.com card is really good, but they don"t serve Thai residents. I think you would find that most (all?) international debit cards don"t serve Thai residents. I would try one of the new online only accounts in Thailand that may have most features you want. like maybe f.e. the new SCB online account.

fdsa Posted May 14, 2021 Share Posted May 14, 2021 Well if you understand Russian and posess some Bitcoins on Litecoins you could test your luck here: https://plati.market/cat/debit-cards/11354/#s11355=priceDESC (note that not all sellers accept cryptocurrencies, most of them accept Webmoney or Paymer only - Russian online payment systems) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wow no need for nastiness. You didn't give the correct information at the beginning, on what you actually required. So many different answers. Now that you have clarified what you require, then the the answer is a 'Debit card' from any bank, which is available to everyone with a valid bank account. SCB, Krungsri, Kbank, TMB etc are all good. Try to be nice..you will get better answers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I just checked the SCB - doesn't look they have such advanced virtual cards. Some of Thai banks (incl. Kasikorn and SCB) are offer virtual cards, but they don't suit such needs - instant issue and reissue. Pity that Revolut doesn't serve international customers. But I'm pretty sure there are some services which serve but wanted to use Thai expats' experience to save time.

Sorry, prepaid cards and debits - is totally different cards, https://www.consumerfinance.gov/ask-cfpb/what-is-the-difference-between-a-prepaid-card-a-credit-card-and-a-debit-card-en-433/. And about your last advice - Thai banks don't supply mentioned in my list features. They simply provide virtual debit cards with limits, but I need instant issue/disable/delete.

I've bought cards there when I needed to pay for online services that did not accept prepaid cards and I didn't want to pay with my personal card & my name. 1 hour ago, samlowry said: I want to link it to my normal card or PayPal, not to buy card every time I need some secure transaction in Internet. good luck with that, please post here if you find suitable bank or web service.

jackdd Posted May 15, 2021 Share Posted May 15, 2021 Wise (Transferwise) offers virtual cards, I think the only requirement from your list which it doesn't offer is setting the billing address. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
