To get a Capital One Venture virtual credit card number, log in to your Capital One Venture account and sign up for Capital One Eno. Once Capital One generates a virtual card number, you will be able to make online purchases with increased protection against credit card fraud.
How to Get a Capital One Venture Virtual Credit Card
- Log in to your Capital One account.
- Visit the page for Capital One Eno, the virtual card program offered by Capital One.
- Download the Capital One browser extension. Select the credit card you want to use and click “Generate.”
- Accept the 16-digit virtual card number that’s generated for you. Take note of the virtual card’s expiration date and security code as well.
- Make purchases with your Capital One Venture virtual credit card number at eligible online retailers. Capital One Eno works with nearly all online merchants.
The Capital One Venture virtual credit card information is tied to your credit card but is not the same as your actual card number. This way, hackers who get ahold of the merchant’s records won’t be able to see your real card information. Virtual credit card numbers help prevent fraud by adding an extra layer of protection to your credit card purchases.
Virtual Card Alternatives
Keep in mind that you can also get a virtual card number through Click to Pay, which works with credit cards on all four major card networks. Once you enroll a card in Click to Pay, you can use it for online checkout with any merchant that displays the Click to Pay logo, which looks like a square with a double arrow pointing to the right.
Click to Pay offers extra security by automatically generating virtual card numbers and pairing them with a "cryptogram" that's different for each transaction you make. That way, even if your virtual card information gets reused by a hacker, the cryptogram won't match and the transaction will be declined. However, it doesn’t give you the virtual card information to use on your own anywhere you want – it’s just a built-in process.
Similarly, you may be able to create digital card numbers or hide your full information from merchants using digital wallets like Google Pay, Apple Pay, or Samsung Pay.
