They existED. Not sure of their current status. Hobbit: I emailed the following last nite, but got a 550 from your smtp daemon.
I think MBNA used Orbiscom's ControlPay. Cyota (now owned by RSA)
had a similar solution called SecureClick. Info I could find via google is sparse,
http://specials.ft.com/ftit/sept2001/FT3D4SI86RC.html is about the
best I found :^(. I DK about the per-vendor stuff at all. The 550 was my fault, and is now fixed, but since this Q seems to have some general interest.... Chris On Feb 24, 2006, at 10:31 PM, Adrian Sanabria wrote:
I can't find any proof that cards with one time transaction numbers exist. There are cards that can be preloaded with cash, like the VISA Buxx that is marketed towards parents that want to control their teens' spending. But the number on the card never changes, and is just as vulnerable as any other. The only advantage is that, if stolen, only the remaining balance can be used. Nothing can be charged as credit by the theif.
