Credit cards with radio chips

By Terry Savage on June 16, 2023 | Credit/Debt

Are there any reputable companies that have a Visa Credit card that does NOT have a RFC in it.
My bank of america credit card was recently compromised and they only have cards with RFC.
I do not trust the security of RFC cards and it is a pain to have to wrap in foil to keep a passerby from
accessing the card.

That’s a pretty rare situation, but you can go on Amazon and buy a wallet or card case that protects you from RFID Theft (except of course when you are actually using it). You might enjoy this article:
