With this and all the other hints, feels p certain pay from pot is coming at some point

I’m probably overthinking, and don’t want to get anyone’s hopes up, but I think once the new pots views have been rolled out it might be time for pay from pots.
That’d give a nice annoucable package of categories and Summary for connected accounts, time expiring virtual cards, virtual cards from pots, pot transaction history… The icing on the cake would be to connect virtual cards to Google/Apple Pay - but we can always use Curve as a get-around for the time being.
Rough estimate of beginning of June for all that?

I’d been thinking the exact same thing. Would certainly tie together, and I feel the hints around pot feeds re ‘getting ready for extra features’ could only have meant pay from pot too tbh.

I tried to earlier but what you have written in the app is spot on in my opinion.
The only bit I suppose I could add is that if you need to replace your main card you don’t need to update all of your online accounts if you use virtual cards.

I tend to describe it as a card that you can use if you’re unsure about the legitimacy of a company. Maybe for example if you’re buying from a site for the very first time or maybe even signing up for a subscription, that way you don’t have to worry about that company having your ‘real’ card details.
Really handy feature IMO, love it!

Yeah I think this is very handy and would always say this as part of any explanation.
Like, rightly or wrongly, it seems more likely something’s gonna happen to my physical card, so I see the virtual as saving me hassle in that instance as opposed to it protecting my main card from fraud.

Question;
If I buy something from dodgywebsite.biz today, use a virtual card and set the expiry to today, will that cause any problems with the pending/final approval of the transaction? As it wouldn’t all be done and dusted today.

Card details without the physical card, typically used for online purchases and subscriptions.
Depending on how they want to use them they may want to use a virtual card to help with budgeting/separation of spending, or to protect their physical card details, or both.
Building on this…
With a mention of how it’s linked to your main account. If your virtual card details get defrauded (
) you don’t have to replace your physical card and vice versa.

Perhaps it could be called a fungible token?

It’s a hard one and I’ll tell you why…
True story:
I ordered something from Screwfix the other day for click and collect, paid with my virtual card. Went and collected but when I got home the Mrs decided she didn’t like it and wanted a different one. I checked online they had the one she wanted me to get in stock and then went to try and exchange it. The one she wanted was cheaper so Screwfix insisted on refunding the difference and did I have the original car.
The look on their faces when i said no it’s a virtual card was absolutely priceless, I spent 5 minutes trying to explain to two guys and their manager what a virtual card was before completely giving up and insisting they just gave me a credit note as I had somewhere to be.
Before this I didn’t think the concept of a virtual card was complicated, now i don’t know what to think
