4 Reasons you should use a virtual card when online shopping
Rounding it up
Why would you choose a virtual card over the one in your wallet while online shopping? For starters, it provides you with extra security against identity theft.
Since they’re already installed on your phone, virtual cards also make online purchases in-app and on your phone’s web browser super easy.
Many virtual cards, including KOHO’s, offer cash back perks as well.
Physical cards take time to arrive at your mailbox; virtual card deliveries are instant! That means you can start spending ASAP.
