I've been trying to find ways to purchase Spotify Premium, to connect Spotify with my home SONOS speakers. If you live abroad, this is a challenge - Spotify won't let you pay them unless you own a US credit card or US paypal account. I googled it and ran into a recommendation for this virtual visa service, Entropay. I couldn't find similar products, so I'm sharing here to ask for your opinions and experience - is it trustworthy? Do if you know of any similar products?

Update: so far so good. After some research, turns out this category of products is called VCCs - Virtual Credit Cards. There are a few of them, including a cheaper one from Mastercard and one from PayPal as well, but both were not available in my country. I created a card on Entropay with a prepaid amount of $50 and activated my Spotify Premium account. Their design could be better, but the whole process took a few seconds and it works great. I'm very satisfied, and can finally play music on my SONOS now :). I'm looking into using this to solve another problem I have with my NGO. Here, government makes it hard for nonprofits to have credit cards, which makes it very hard for us to buy digital products. VCCs could be a good solution in compliance with what they're looking for.

I won't trust them, simply because of this statement in their terms: "We may use Your personal data for marketing purposes and for market research purposes..."

Thanks @cprins_ I! I can see what you mean, but who doesn't these days? :)

I've been using this for all online SaaS payments for a while now, so easy to use and would highly recommend it :-)

This looks very similar to Payoneer, with the difference that Payoneer issues you a physical MasterCard. I believe the fees are also different in that I don't think Payoneer charges you for loading it.

Have been using entropay sporadically for years. The fees maybe a bit steep but so far the service has been solid.

@kehers Hi Opeyemi. Do you use privacy.com? I signed up to their waiting list month ago, and they haven't sent the invitation.

Really great service. Use it to pay Spotify for a long time.
