MG Mueller, thanks for that info. The crucial question is: what address is "registered" with the card? (In other words, what address do you have to supply when you use the card on-line?)

In the context of buying Kindle books from Amazon, it would have to be a US address. If it's the customer's own (non-US) address, then there would be no point in using it, as far as I can see.

In fact, Amazon apart, what's the benefit of using a virtual credit card compared to any other kind? The only thing I can think of is if the customer can't get credit in the normal way (since the virtual card is in fact a pre-payment card).

Have I missed something?
