That said, I do really want disposable card numbers; I've missed that service ever since Amex discontinued their version.
- 18% APR? (interest rates are near 0%; my worst card is 17%) - 1% cash back (my worst card is 1.5% back, best is 5%) - $49 annual fee? (None of my cards have annual fees)
Great work on the features and UI for the service, but you need a better banking partner. The product is unremarkable.
So what I am getting is virtual CC numbers (which is not really new) with package that is rather sub par. I mean, I get the technological end, it's very neat, but when I compare cold hard (plastic :) cash, this card does not look appealing to me.
As for CC breaches and changing numbers, yes, it's annoying, but for me not annoying enough to commit to a card that on relative calculation would cost me couple of hundreds of dollars per year.
i always look for this before signing up to a financial service. if you aren't easy to reach from every page on your site(or only allow phone calls from 9-3 EST, kind of crap)... i don't trust you with my money, period. I know really good customer service reps are spendy, but hiding from the customer is unacceptable.
While the phone support number is not published on the marketing site, we make ourselves incredibly easy to reach for all current cardholders, both through the mobile app as well as by phone and email. Support is based onsite here at our HQ office in Oakland, and can be reached between 9am-5pm PST.
Annual Fee: $0 intro for the first year, $49 per year thereafter

So you have to spend $5000 on this card just to break even and then I'm still only getting 1% back. As someone who has never really had an issues with my CC which averages me 2% back and is free and I can't start to justify this. I use Simple Bank and love the UI (mobile/web) and this UI looks nice but with Simple I didn't have to leave money on the table to switch over to it (or at least not how I use it).
