I use PayPal where possible. And bank transfer in local stores. But where it's not possible to use other methods, I do leave my card number. Moreover, I use several subscription services. Netflix, Dropbox, Prime Video, Adobe Photoshop, Google Drive 100 GB (for Gmail) and more. Not all of them have PayPal as a payment option, so I have to keep my card info there.

I'm sure many people live perfectly well without using any subscription services. So what? I want to use them and I do. I'm willing to take a security risk to do that. (Yes, I know Dropbox and Adobe, to name but two, have had data leaks.)
