You can use the Capital One Eno app simply by making sure you are registered for Capital One online access. You can set up online access on the web or through the Capital One Mobile app. Eno is a 24/7 virtual assistant that helps you monitor and manage your Capital One accounts.
Here’s how Capital One Eno works:
You can text with Eno and ask questions about your Capital One accounts. Simply open your Capital One app and tap the Eno icon.
You can receive email, text and app alerts from Eno about unusual changes, like suspicious activity or duplicate charges. You can also receive notifications about free trials and insights on your spending. If you’re already registered for online access, Eno should already be sending you alerts. To verify whether you can receive text alerts, sign in to your Capital One online account, select your profile photo, then “Profile” and confirm that your mobile phone is listed and automated texts are allowed. To verify that you can receive app alerts, select your profile photo and go to “Settings”, followed by “Alerts & Notifications”.
You can use Eno to provide you virtual card numbers at each purchase in order to protect your card's details. You can lock, unlock or delete your virtual card numbers at any time. Simply download the Eno browser extension to make sure it pops up when you’re on a merchant’s checkout web page.
To get a Capital One virtual credit card number, log in to your Capital One 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.
Go to the page for Capital One Eno, the virtual card program offered by Capital One.
Download the Capital One Eno browser extension. Follow the prompts to create a virtual card number.
Accept the 16-digit virtual card number that’s generated for you. Take note of the expiration date and security code that are generated as well.
Make purchases with your Capital One virtual credit card at eligible online retailers. Capital One Eno works with nearly all online merchants.
The Capital One virtual credit card information is tied to your credit card but is not the same as your actual card number. This way, any hackers who get ahold of the merchant’s records won’t be able to see your real card information. In other words, virtual credit card numbers help prevent fraud by adding an extra layer of protection to your credit card purchases.
Keep in mind, however, that not all cards issued by Capital One have access to Capital One Eno. Make sure you read through your card’s guide to benefits to see whether it qualifies. If your card isn’t eligible, you can use Click to Pay to get a virtual card number. Click to Pay works with credit cards on all four major card networks.
