          The card has numbers, they just aren’t printed on it. You can access (and change them) from the phone / computer.

            I’m intrigued. So the card itself has a mag stripe and an RFID chip but no numbers printed on it? You log into your account to copy/paste the numbers for online transactions?

            What bank? I like the idea of “no numbers”

              Yes.

              Mine is Goldman Sachs (Apple Card), but other banks offer it too now, including some big ones like Chase.

      Kind of incredible how we pretty much invented those 3 extra numbers to make sure that knowing what’s on the front won’t he enough to use it, and then we undid that by putting it on the back. https://xkcd.com/2677/
