I did this, but not really sure if I did this. Wasn't very intuitive when checking out and no real verification that I used a virtual number.

Good to know, thanks! Every card should have this option.

This only works on sites which take Google Pay. Amazon directly doesn't accept it, but buying cards from alternatives (Target, Best Buy, anywhere that takes it) would probably work.

Edit: This works anywhere (including Amazon), but requires a rather specific set of settings on with Chrome.
- Your card must be in your Google Wallet (wallet.google.com)
- You must be signed in to Chrome
- You must have sync on (either "Sync everything" or at least Payment methods checked)
- Note: Even if logged in, without sync on Chrome will not generate the card. This is despite the card appearing in Autofill > Payment methods.

Read Hibiol's post for caveats with using this on Amazon.

Wrong. If you put your Discover card into your Google Wallet (Pay, Payment,... whatever), then use Google Chrome with that Google Profile logged in, there will be a new card autofill option that says "Discover Virtual card", then Chrome will autofill the payment field with a virtual card number different from your original card number.

It works everywhere, like a normal card. I have been using it for a few months now.

The catch is this virtual card option is intended for single use, and Google x Discover have to verify and greenlight it every time you use one, so you can't save it for future purchases or recurring subscriptions as it may break (or may not, but it may break).
For example: Amazon usually charges you when they ship. You purchase 2 items in the same order, one shipped 3 days from now, the other 4 days from now. The item 3 days from now will likely go through, but Amazon may send you an email regarding payment declined for the item 4 days from now.
