Bitrefill (or the like) with Monero?

Hello people! I've used bitrefill to shop with crypto and it's pretty cool, but it lacks Monero acceptance and I was wondering if there is any service like this that you use with Monero?

What I currently do is to swap XMR to LTC and pay with that, but still a gift card could be linked to LTC payment and swap service that a person used to change XMR-LTC which is not bad, but not ideal. I belive such a service would improve Monero adoption

Have you asked bitrefill about XMR support yet? They might accept Monero in the future if there is enough demand.

If you're from the US/Canada you can check out https://coincards.com/

They accept Monero

I would like this too, but the old adage "you pay with your money or else pay with your data" has a crypto corollary: "you pay with your money and you pay with your data".

Bitrefill seems to be unique in selling mobile refills without bitKYCpay. I would not be surprised if they run all the txid/phone# pairs through ciphertrace in exchange for the feds leaving them alone. For low-value transactions like mobile refills this is a good deal from the three letter agencies' perspective. El Chapo isn't gonna launder his billions using Verizon minutes.

Which is another way of saying: don't hold your breath on XMR, since there's no useful data there for ciphertrace to ingest.
