Prepaid cards like Swissbankers with no name attached

[MikeRoss]

Are there any services or EMIs offering prepaid cards similar to Swissbankers travel cards that have high withdraw limits and no name attached to them?

It should be possible to top up such cards from a business account.

No name attached, and what exactly do you expect to come out of it?

I'm curious because if you think just because your name is not printed on the card that it is anonymous then I'm sorry to disappoint you, it is not.

Those days are gone. After several terrorist groups were found to be using such cards, regulators have cracked down on them.

Even if you can find cards with no name on the card itself, it's usually in the EMV chip or in the mag stripe anyway. And if it's not there, it's either of such low and limited value (can't be reloaded) that it's impractical and/or your name is known simply by inquiring with the issuer.

They are either limited in value to be impractical and/or cannot be reloaded, or the cardholder is KYC'd.

Do you have any specific providers in mind?

You know that we are now in 2021 and after 9/11 much has changed?

ALL cards will only be issued with KYC, regardless of whether a name on the card is printed or not.

The name on the card no longer plays a role because the transactions are only authorized by contactless, PIN or online (3D), no longer with a signature to verify the cardholder by the name and ID.

 

[MikeRoss]

Do you mean that there is no difference in terms of pseudo-anonimity as to which card to use?

Will any institution and company, that you ATM withdraw or pay offline/online automatically see your name, company and address?

I know that legal authorities will get info about you if they start investigating. The question is more about withdrawals from ATMs in the country of residence, that are less public...

Do you have any idea what CRS is?

So it does NOT matter where in the world you withdraw.

An interesting Thread nontheless, first and foremost Such Cards still Exist and its been upgraded to 3D secure,PIN etc just as @GlobalConsult noted, which is vital.

That said Virtual debit card/Debit cards duly registered and linked to a business entity is the sure way to go and is still the way..

the level of setup achieved/needed while setting up and Linking the business entity, should provide daily limits/Monthly spend limits, either for online purchases/POS/or the most common use, ATM fiat withdrawals..

These limits are vital as adhering to them keeps the alphabeth acronyms /authorities off your back...and hence if a highlimit/low limit card setup has been executed, stick to the parameters given and the card user should be okay longterm..

Get an opsec that gives a mix of POS daily limit/online purchase limits/fiat ATM access limits and stick to it, and its a longterm usage all the way...

CRS doesn't apply to card withdrawals... not yet.


OP you are about 20 years too late

Again someone who has no idea.

CRS has nothing to do with withdrawals, but with the account / card balance reporting!

In my case, my company tops up the card and I spend the money for personal needs

Pointless discussion and a waste of time explaining something to someone he doesn't understand.

You're not explaining, you're stating.
Explain me please, I would like to understand, as well as 9thers, I assume

The card you refer to works with uploading via local outlet, or phone app. The app is connected to your phone unless you have taken ALL the steps to have a ghost phone with an alternative identity AND having the ability to move funds via that app that do not compromise your real identity. Local outlet requires in many if not all cases an ID to top up the card.

Effectively this product is not anonymous.

Its just a modern version of traveler cheques.

Personal needs? That is comingling of assets and funds. Say goodbye to any asset protection and limited liability offered by your company. That is one way how people who sue you pierce the corporate veil.

sorry to replay after such long time... mind to elaborate what exactly you mean?

Commingling of assets or funds can pierce the corporate veil and eviscerate the personal asset protection and the limited liability offered by doing business as a corporation:

Commingling of assets or funds can pierce the corporate veil and open you up to be personally liable for company debts. Creditors will seek access to company and personal records in an attempt to prove commingling. This allows them to go through the legal protections of the business entity to come after its owners personally to satisfy the debts of the company.

https://watkinsfirm.com/commingling...s allows them to go,the debts of the company.
That is the law in the U.S., anyhow.
