That is really innovative. I will check their fees at once and see if I can get myself a free virtual card

These guys have seen two gaps in the Bitcoin world, and they have seized the opportunity. Many people have told me before that they
would use their credit card on the internet, if the Credit card companies allowed them to change their account number after each tx was
concluded. They do not trust companies to secure that information for them. The other thing is, Bitcoin is linked to VISA, and this opens
up a whole new revenue stream for them. {These customers are currently shunned by banks}

Shake is launching the open beta after a successful six-month alpha testing period. Famously, the test saw BitGo engineer Mason Borda order a Tesla Model 3 using a virtual Shake card for the deposit.
The Canadian company currently offers apps for Android and iOS. Users with NFC-enabled phones can also use them to make tap-and-pay payments at store terminals. Those without can still use the apps to create “virtual cards”. Still others can use the Shake website to create cards without any mobile device at all.
