I think you have the answer already and IANAL but just to add on, in most countries this a matter of PCI compliance that is enforced by the card networks. In most countries it's no…

They should be using an issuing processor (a financial institution that works with Visa or MasterCard) to issue card numbers. Issuing processors can easily generate card numbers pr…

I think this is what https://www.wavecrest.gi/ does. But haven't heard great things about them. Shift payments is another option in the US - don't think they're in the UK either.

Lots of friends at Amazon (US, IN, EU) who would categorically disagree on being slave driven. He is more aggressive and less favorable on "perks" than other companies in the bay a…
