I use Privacy.com to make virtual cards for this purpose.

Does privacy.com still require a debit card? That was what put me off the last time I investigated their service.

It did the last time I looked into it.

I went to set up a privacy.com virtual card for a semi-sketchy site, only to have privacy deny the charge as it was for a "high risk" site.

Yeah, I KNOW, that's why I wanted to use a virtual card. That ended my brief foray into privacy.com

Yes, their business model is charging merchants at credit card rates (~3%), and billing you at debit card rates (~0.1%).
