Virtual card

Definition

A card that exists only in the app, with no plastic — for online payments.

What it means in practice

You generate it instantly in the app and pay online. Safer for subscriptions and online shopping, because it is easy to block.

Why it affects your choice

If you pay a lot online, having a virtual card can matter. Not every product offers one.

Watch out

Some Polish currency accounts do not offer a dedicated virtual card (only a card in the phone via Apple/Google Pay) — in the comparison this may show as missing data.
