Seeking consumer privacy focused paypal alternative in the US, prefer FOSS if possible. Any suggestions? (lemm.ee)

Best option I can think of is privacy.com

You can create virtual cards linked to your bank account and the transaction data is masked when processed by you bank. All my bank transactions show up as NSA Gift Shop. My bank doesn't know where I'm spending my money. Yes you have to trust privacy.com...

Yeah i guess it's too much to ask for open source for this. Privacy.com actually looks like a good option. I will check it out. Thank you.
