I guess soon cards won't be around, it will be all virtual. I suspect in five years, you may have to request a card, and instead they will have some kind of electronic delivery to your phone as default.

Now, you can generate an impossible-to-lose Revolut's virtual card and use it for all of your online payments (Uber, Deliveroo etc.). You’ll never have this problem again!

I don’t think they are being introduced until later in the year, I saw a post on Twitter about it a few weeks ago.ischris85 said:I currently opened up a TSB S&S account but didnt receive a card like this.
