If I want to buy something online using epassporte is it better to use my virtual visa number or my Electron card number? Is Epassporte's visa as well accepted online as a visa issued by a bank? Are there any gotchas I should be aware of?

Thanks

You can only use your virtual visa number.

Exactly |thumb

You should also know that you won't be able to buy from sites that use 2CO as their processor ( I tried it several times about 1 month ago but it didn't work ).

Not sure if it's processors or shopping carts, but, I have run into a few places that I can't use ePassporte. And I can't seem to get eP to make an effort to find out what is wrong and make it work.

Some of the places that a I should be able to use the virtual card but can't:
Some SE PPC, some Domain register, FedEx.

It sounds like the virtual visa card is not that reliable. What about the electron card? Is that solely for ATM purposes?
