Is there something similar to privacy.com in Europe so I don’t have to enter my credit card information everywhere? Or another way to buy stuff online privately on many different stores and websites?

    With bank transfers I am referring to services like Paytrail/Klarna where you authenticate with your bank, and choose which account the sum is taken from.

      Services like Klarna are micro-loans though. They’re not a bank transfer or really a direct payment of the service/product you’re buying, it is literally just a small loan with a short runtime (usually 3-12 months)

        Klarna offers direct payments too. In Sweden you can pay with Swish, credit/debit card, or bank transfers.

      Isn’t Klarna a credit service more like a loan where you then distribute the payments over the next few months? You sign a contract and stuff just like bank loans, it’s not the same as making a bank transfer at all.

        You don’t have to use the loan feature Klarna offers.

        You can also pay with a credit or debit card using Klarna (makes makes it more convenient if you haven’t memorized the CC numbers yet) or using bank transfers, or with services like Swish.
