3. PayWithmoon:

Paywithmoon is an online service (available as a browser extension) that let you purchase a virtual visa card directly from your coinbase account or a Lightning network wallet. Moon shields your personal information from merchants, protecting you from data leaks and hackers. You can use “Paywithmoon” service to shop online on unlimited online stores in US.

Get a Coinbase account || Install PaywithMoon

  • To use Paywithmoon, you need to install the browser extension
  • Connect it with your Coinbase account

Once you have authorized your connection with Coinbase account, you should be able to create virtual cards that can be used for online shopping.

You can also fund the Moon account using a Lightning Network enabled wallet. Moon Visa® Prepaid Cards must be used within 24 hours of creation. If you made an error in setting the amount on a card or have decided to no longer use the card, you can click the “delete” button under the card which will allow you to submit a form to receive a refund. Refunds are processed in Bitcoin. The amount refunded will be equal to the unspent value of the card converted to Bitcoin at the moment of refund. Refund requests will be processed within 48 hours of receipt.

If you don’t spent the full balance of your virtual visa card, don’t worry! You can request a refund for the remaining balance. You can submit a partial refund request form. I think this is a hassle, but again this project seems interesting for many, and thats why featuring it here.
