Proton Pay - credit / debit card alias
Replacement to GooglePay or ApplePay.
To elaborate, a wallet that can link PayPal, credit cards (then create virtual card numbers so that the real card number is not actually exposed). It would be a cool bonus to see and manage recurring payments and such too.

This is the next step towards a privacy suite like Proton, together with a profile and phone aliasing.

Yes please. I want away from Google completely. Also can you do something like adobe. I want to get rid of everything, especially Google wallet but I need proton to make these things as I'm so over paying 6 different companies.

In addition the possibility to pay with the NFC to replace GPay or Apple pay. Will be a wonderful!

Being able to use virtual cards would be very useful because not only would it add security, it would also add a easy “one-click-unsubscribe” to subscriptions, making it simple, just like mailing lists unsubscriptions have one-click unsubscribe.

I would love to have Proton Pay! Especially since apple just recently opened up NFC to third party developers. If you could make similar functionality to privacy.com or even just buy privacy.com and allow people to tap to pay with their phones without revealing their real card number that would be amazing! I'd also love the capability to have burner cards.

Privacy.com is not available where I live so a service like this would be great.
It would also be good if the ability to add an alias in stead of my real name on virtual burner cards

I currently use Privacy.com for this purpose, and it works great. Initially, I thought Proton Wallet was for anonymized cards for online purchases and was so excited.
Please, please, please, add the ability to create burner cards for online purchases and reoccuring payments.

Yeah Proton, we could get rid of Google pay and use Proton Wallet (Or Proton Pay) which could allow to pay with Bitcoins or with my credit card.

I Support your Feature request since it's maybe the same intent as my idea:

Not sure they will implement. I'm the US banks made own Paze. And it's still not really popular.
Most of banks don't support Samsung pay.
At least Proton needs to release virtual phone numbers. It's more easier for regulations.

What we actually need ^^
Alternative to Google Pay is so much needed.

This is absolutely what we need. Apple Pay does have your credentials but at least, when paying, Apple pay masks your credit card so no third party has access to your real credit card data. It's absurd what kind of data we are sharing with outers when paying with a plastic card, completely unsafe method, too.

We need something like this that works globally, not just US/Canada and not just in the EU/UK. Or, at least, in as many countries as possible.

would be great to use Proton for NFC payments with some way, using Paypal, or transfer money to a wallet of Proton and use that or have a proton debit card

I think if Proton goes down this route, they should try best to conform to what the Open Wallet Foundation is doing (https://openwallet.foundation/). They don't have anything finalized, but once they do, this seems like the direction Proton should go should they make a Google/Apple pay alternative.

Virtual cards or cards aliases would be a very useful feature to improve privacy online for many of us, and it should be offered in more places than US or Canada. For the people that says that there are alternatives that already do this, those alternatives only work for customers in US and maybe Canada. We need something that works in Europe.

Most definitely need this much needed wallet to replace Google Wallet and Apple Wallet.

It would be nice to have a private wallet app option that won't track your spending, unlike Apple and Google. It is a bit outside of Proton's venue but if they could pull it off, that would be great.
