Also, this will explain it:

Then you can DL the software to your computer and run it from there, or log into your account every time and then log into the virtual CC section.

Maybe give 'em a call and check it out? That is weird that it doesnt have that option for your card... maybe they limit it to different kinds of cards?

Oh and I highly doubt I'm a big balla Moe

Just curious, why the big desire for the "virtual" cards?

Are you guys afraid of fraud?

Never been too concerned since I only use cards online with low available lines in case they get lifted. I have 2 cap 1 accounts and they raised my credit on the low one a while back. I called them and asked them to lower it back down since its the one I use online.

They obliged and increased the other one by the same amount

They just don't get it.

I called and it isnt available with my card because it was originally a transferred card (used to be Macys or some chit, and they switched it over)

Oh, and I KNOW youre a big balla Zach!!

Many of us are ALREADY victims of fraud. The virtual cards can save the hassle of going through it again.

Chase does not offer these, alas!
