I love privacy.com for this, and I’ll never sign up for a trial or something recurring without using it again.

I signed up for a trial for another service which shall remain unnamed, and of course I couldn’t find anywhere on the site to cancel my trial once I wanted to. No problem, I just disabled the card. They’ve probably tried to bill me a dozen times since.

There are some less scrupulous sites that ban privacy.com cards. Dallas Morning News is a recent one I ran into.

I hadn't heard of privacy.com cards, but that thought had crossed my mind. What is to stop organisations simply banning privacy.com cards?

We’ll technically I don’t think they’re able to, but they can ban prepaid cards which I think is how they’re classified.

was it… stamps.com? adobe? wsj? a gym?

Privacy.com is free, but I’d pay quite a bit of money for it, it has saved me hundreds of dollars.
