> No-KYC virtual VISA card with hash-based access, funded by crypto — bundled with self-run RPC nodes and a 0-fee PPLNS mining pool.

## Review

PrivacyGateway is a multi-product privacy storefront centered on a **No-KYC virtual VISA card**. The card is provisioned against an *Access hash* (no email, no phone, no ID upload), funded by crypto deposits, supports Google Pay and 3DS, carries a 3.5% loading fee, and caps at $10,000/month. Subscription is $10/month (currently promoted at 50% off through 2026 → $5/month).

**What's bundled on the same domain:**
- **Monero RPC node** at `xmr.privacygateway.io` — the daemon answers standard Monero queries and is live on mainnet. Zano companion node at `zano.privacygateway.io`. No-log per operator.
- **Mining pool** at `pool.xmr.privacygateway.io` — 0% fee PPLNS across ports 3333 / 5555 / 7777 / 9000, with a first-block bonus promo. Newly launched, still-small hashrate.
- **Swap tab** — a widget that routes trades to third-party swap engines already listed on xmr.club. Present but not a first-party swap product.

**What to watch before scaling exposure:**
- **Baseline documentation is thin.** The /about, /faq, /terms, /privacy, /pricing, and /contact pages aren't yet published. Support is via the Telegram handle listed on the site.
- **Custodial between deposit and card-load.** Standard for the prepaid-VISA product shape — funds sit with the operator during the load window.
- **Observable footprint is short.** Public web-archive traces begin February 2026; the cards product went live in Q1 2026. Grade held at C on publish while a longer-tenure track record accumulates.

Suited to readers who want a spendable no-KYC card without a bank-tier account, and who accept the tenure-floor risk that comes with any Q1-2026 launch in the cards category.
