Take Chime, for instance—they used to demand that the card wasn't prepaid, that it was a physical one, and that it actually matched your name. To verify it, they had me snap a photo of the card where you could see my name and the last four digits (you have to cover up the rest)... I don't know if they still do that. Then there's Apple Pay, which also wants everything in your name, but as far as I know, they aren't as picky about virtual cards, so I'm not even sure how the verification process works for those. Even Cash App asked me to take pictures of the cards I added, though they didn't explicitly say my name had to be visible... honestly, who knows how they'd handle it if it wasn't a physical card in the first place.
🤦
Oh, I totally misread that...
