    PayPal are now offering their own Virtual Debit Card so you can shop everywhere on the net using your PayPal. The cool thing about it is that the program you download to use it generates a new virtual number for each transaction making it very secure. The downside, you have to run the executable prior to the transaction so it might not be very convenient under some circumstances.

    It's in Beta now, so it might show up to US accounts only.

    When you get your usual promo when logging in try to change the promo number to 671 in the URL, see if you get it.

    I don't get a promo, or the ability to change the Promo ID, so I guess I'll just have to wait

    LOOOOOOOOOOOOL
    But that card is only for US-residents and since in USA are many other virtual credit card offers ( from banks and financial services companies ), it doesn´t make any sense. I would agree if that would be possible also for non-US-residents to get one, but guess what?
    Patriot act is your friend :mad:
    Thank you, see you soon. :D
