Unlike physical cards, virtual cards generate unique numbers for each transaction, making it harder for fraudsters to misuse your information. Additionally, you can set spending limits or restrict usage to specific merchants, further enhancing security when buying <strong data-start=\"1516\" data-end=\"1541\">local currency abroad<\/strong>.
