Don't even need that for Amazon

ApplePay on websites means you don’t even have to enter your shipping information

If they don't take paypal, I'm out.

My mechanical genius, multimillionaire boss has no idea how to buy stuff online, so, he texts me links.
theMonkeyTrap
That’s why I use citi random card generator app on pc, mind you not for the security it provides.
Jezzmund
Which is why I memorize my card info.
timelordDisguise
I literally bought a Gameboy game online so this holds up.

Last 4 digits of your card number, the 3 digit security code, name an animal beginning with G and the year the Magna carta was signed
AntaNce
that's 4 things. made of 3 or 4 other things. 1215. grash ganda.
LetAllYourAngerOutOnMeIDontBite
I'm actually surprised at the comments. I know imgur is lazy, but people saying "use paypal" cause they can't walk 5 feet to get their card
pilotperson
Well, if PayPal is an option for that purchase then it’s more efficient than entering card info...
yoyo42
I once downloaded an app so I didn't have to move to get the remote from the other chair...
jhsuber
I downloaded the Xbox app so I wouldn’t have to get off couch to get controller and turn it back on to resume playing Netflix
GeneralGinger531
To be fair, it only takes one weak link website holding onto your credit card info and suddenly all of your assets are stolen. If I walked
down the street, someone could pick my pocket and maybe have 6 hours before I was at the bank, calling for a freeze on my card. Now
pickpockets have gone global, and they can steal your card without it ever leaving your pocket. And that is whats bullshit.
YourFatMother
Y'all can just send me y'all's card info for when you need it. Call me and I got you. ???
Eatasaur
This man living in 2039 while we out here living in 2019!
???? Hey. Can't blame a fella for trying.
ZombieZooZombieZoo
Is it weird I much prefer going to store to buy stuff?
wtforero
Not weird, I think it’s weird when people buy clothes, shoes, and glasses online. You have to try them on
And have to carry it back? Ya freak
gtavenger
I’m the same I like to have the purchase right away. My wife exclusively shops online
Are you me?
PhilipCoulson
Same, if I want something, I want it NOW! I only buy things online if I can’t buy it around my city, or if it’s significantly cheaper!
McmuffinLove
That's why i love websites who uses PayPal
LilandraNeramani
If it don't use PayPal I kind of give up buying
minivanfullofsnacks
Same. Get up and get my card? I don’t need this shirt.
AccountCreatedToUpvoteDogs
I memorized my card. More protection from Visa than PayPal, like price drop guarantee and extended warranty
Xenarion
I would, but Amazon is damn practical.
My SO uses Amazon way too much. You need to shop around. Amazon ain't always the cheapest option.
I didn't say I use only Amazon, I said I use it's practical enough to use it even if they don't take Paypal.
AtsaMattaForMe
memorize your card info
Get a password keeper!
turomar
Happened accidentally after typing it in a dozen times or so. I'd just start typing and then realize I hadn't gone to go get my wallet
coolcalx
I memorized my card info because of how often I ordered pizza online. I’m not ashamed of that either
tremblementdegrandmere
I can’t even memorize the 3 digit code on the back
jakeinthehood
Probably the most impressive thing I've done out of pure laziness
FeykroYol
I’ve memorized my 16 digit WiFi password because I was tired of getting up to show guests what it was
ToxicMolluscinity
^ Lookit Einstein here
bunnyfloofington
Bad idea. If you’re into sleep texting like me especially. Why? Well, I woke up to find I spent $100+ online in my sleep. Not cool me...
ButterfaceTaintClown
this is such a bad idea. my laziness is the only thing standing between me and crippling credit card debt...
gorgosaurusrex
I would consider adding discipline lol
I'll file it under consideration.
dronir
I often also need a randomly selected 6-digit number out of 200 of them printed on a card that my bank sends me.
colbyshmolby56
I did! And then the bastards canceled that card and sent me a new one!!! How am I supposed to remember another card number now?
Azjsy
I'm not Einstein
Eggtothenog
It's the only thing I remember, basic math? Nah, but you bet your ass I'm gonna be buying this new whathaveit off of amazon.
getyourp00pinagroup
also really helpful if you ever have your card lost/stolen and you need to fly home, get a hotel room, get dinner etc.
Danishlmgurian
Is it a good or a bad thing that you've memorised your card info because of the usage?
Oilfieldangel
I’m going with good. Cause I’ve memorized mine from overuse.
Myfartssmelllikeraspberries
My phone got that shit memorized
bilateralunsymmetry
All you need is those three numbers
Now, so does the NSA
TheMadOnion
They can have my $0.57
When they need money they can just blackmail congressmen. It's your purchase history they need for profiling...reasons.

What security measures does your country have?
JHawke
Differs per bank, but in most cases you need to use your card in a separate 2factor device.
FuckYouAndYourHappiness
That sounds way worse, just because of the hassle. Regular 2factor could work tho
Security is hassle. It is just a matter of up to which point does one consider it worth it. In the case of bank account I'd say very far.
I feel like the 3-4 digit code unique to each card is a pretty good measure. I would hate to have to also rely on a mobile device.
Also I use pay pal for everything online. And I use a credit card vs debit. So I'm double covered for fraudulent charges.
I've always preferred to prevent the disease, over fixing the symptoms.
yeager99
I can teach you how to do that, just give me your name, card number, expiration, and the three number code form the back
learntotakejoke
That would require me to go get my wallet and I don't feel like it!

3799 8675 3091 9088 exp: 4/20 CCV: 069
badjanet
Any card starting with 3 is Amex, which has one less digit in the main line and one additional in the CCV. Nice try ;). Blaze it. Nice.
legofham
Thanks, I'll be in touch with a guide on how to memorise.
Thanks for your help!
CrabbyRangoon
Must be Jenny's credit card info.
Jenny of oldstones?
sequential
Whenever I see a card online, I always think "that random number could be some poors saps actual info"
IFavouriteEveryPostISee
I wanna be that dude if his expirary date is 420 and his CCV number is 69.
I also snuck 8675 309 in there
AlaskanX
That's not a valid number. You didn't even try! Visa always starts with a 4, MC with 5, and Discover with a 6.
redSpaceTraveler
Yea and it says 4/20 69 captain smarts
Oh and almost all the rest aren't 16 digits.
Totallybadassusername
The first 6 identifies as American Express
Sypiner
Amex starts with a 3...
Amex is 15 digits
IWasACatAllAlong
PayPal is good for this because it remembers my login. :P That wallet 2 arms reaches away can stay there!
jennym123
How can you be two arm reaches away? Do you keep a severed arm around for these situations?
canigetofftheworldplease
I hate Paypal and having to pay them for basically nothing
It isn't "nothing", it's an escrow, a disinterested 3rd party to make sure both sides get what was agreed upon, for a fee. Like home buying
Which is only useful for risky transactions, otherwise using a regular card is much cheaper.
Buying something sight unseen from an internet stranger qualifies as risky in my opinion. Seller pays the fees, if they aren't willing (1)
(2) then that's a red flag.
maninthedarkness
Lots of reasons to not trust Paypal, though. Be cautious.
nonyabiness
I've been using PayPal for many years with no problems.
MrStarkLord
Based on what? Their servers have *never* been breached. Possibly safer than your financial institution.
fnurglbhurg
Please elaborate.
Should I trust it less than Facebook? Thanks for the random warning. ⚠️?
MadeMyAccountJustForThis
I like to have one spending account where I only move money into it to buy stuff, while using a bank app to quickly move money when I do.
Do you trust Facebook with your money?
dwilson0725
I trust paypal as much, if not more, than my bank. They are corrupt as fuck. Demonstrably.

In a similar vein, Patreon is also a private business that can remove you from their platform, and have admitted they don't necessarily /1
Remove people based on their TOS; those that have been removed in this way were given zero notice about the arbitrary rules presumably /2
Because they are de facto rules that aren't written anywhere. PayPal has also denied its services to other platforms for hosting people /3
