<h2><b>Introduction</b></h2>
<p>
With the growing economy and increasingly aggressive marketing, every company is competing to earn your business. There are no shortages of ways to spend your hard-earned money, but you may not always want to have your purchases tied to your real identity. For in person purchases, there is the obvious choice of cash as no information about you is recorded. However, online is a different story. E-commerce is heavily reliant on the use of credit cards, which leave a digital trail of metadata that ties back to you, is shared with third parties and is repackaged and sold to data brokers. Some forward-thinking vendors accept cryptocurrency but given online markets as a whole, this is still relatively niche. If your preferred method of buying something is Monero and your target vendor doesn't accept Monero, wouldn't it be great if you could still just use Monero anyway? In this article, we will explore how to obtain an anonymous prepaid card for Monero using Cake Pay and how to use this prepaid card to purchase a VPS from Hostinger, a KYC web hosting provider.

<h2><b>Obtaining the Card</b></h2> </br> </br>
<p>
Using the Tor Browser, navigate to <b>https://buy.cakepay.com</b>. Here we are going to select the Mastercard Prepaid USD Debit (Virtual Only) option. Click Buy Now.
<img src="1.png" class="imgRz">
</p>
<p>
When prompted, enter an <a href=https://blog.nowhere.moe/opsec/anonemail/index.html target=_blank>anonymous email</a> and then retrieve and enter the one-time password emailed to us.
<img src="2.png" class="imgRz">
</p>
<p>
The next screen has some important information on it. It informs us that a name and email will be required for sign-up. It just doesn't specify that it has to be <i>our</i> name or address. This card will not work in Apple Pay or Google Wallet, not that we were planning on using those anyway. Additionally, trying to redeem this card while using a VPN (or in our case, the Tor Browswer) may fail. More on that later. Enter a desired amount and click Buy Now.
<img src="3.png" class="imgRz">
</p>
<p>
We are now presented with a payment screen.
<img src="4.png" class="imgRz">
</p>
<p>
Copy the destination address and amount into your Monero wallet and send the payment.
<img src="5.png" class="imgRz">
</p>
<p>
Cake Pay will quickly detect the payment, and after a few more on-chain confirmations it will say the invoice is paid.
<img src="6.png" class="imgRz">
</p>
<p>
Back in your inbox, you will now receive an email with Redemptions Instructions and a Code.
<img src="7.png" class="imgRz">
</p>
<p>
Attempting to redeem the code through the Tor Browser, through a VPN or through a proxy will fail and after around 10 consecutive attemps your redemption link and code will be temporarily locked.
<img src="8.png" class="imgRz">
</p>
<p>
To get around this, we will use a public wifi away from our physical location. Find a cafe with free wifi and connect to it preferably from outside or on the street away from any CCTV cameras or the like.
<ol>
<li>On mobile, navigate to the link received, input the code and click Submit.</li>
<li>You are now presented with a new code, which for some reason is not emailed to you. Copy it from this page and click the link.</li>
<li>Enter the code and click Redeem Code.</li>
<li>Complete the captcha if prompted by sliding the puzzle piece in place.</li>
</ol>
<img src="9.png" class="imgRz">
</p>
<p>
We are now prompted to fill out the information we want for registering this card. We enter a name, an address that is for sale online, a phone number and email. After everything is populated click the checkboxes and finally hit Activate. Note that the phone number is not verified in any way.
<img src="10.png" class="imgRz">
</p>
<p>
Our card is ready!

<h2><b>Using the Card</b></h2> </br> </br>
<p>
With our (digial) card in hand, it's time to actually buy something. Hostinger is a clearnet web hosting company with no explicitly stated support for signing up anonymously. All of their payment options require some information about the user and while their site supports a long list of cryptocurrencies, they somehow forgot to accept Monero. That's OK, we have a prepaid card for that.
<img src="12.png" class="imgRz">
</p>
<p>
Using the Tor Browser, navigate to <b>https://hostinger.com</b> and click on Hosting -> VPS hosting.
<img src="13.png" class="imgRz">
</p>
<p>
If prompted, verify you are human.
<img src="14.png" class="imgRz">
</p>
<p>
We will select a plan that costs less than the amount on our prepaid card.
<img src="15.png" class="imgRz">
</p>
<p>
OPTIONAL: A quick online search found a promo code. Apply it and click Continue.
<img src="16.png" class="imgRz">
</p>
<p>
It is time to create an account. Enter an email address and password.
<img src="17.png" class="imgRz">
</p>
<p>
Enter the billing details we used to create our prepaid card. Note that a phone number is not required here.
<img src="18.png" class="imgRz">
</p>
<p>
Enter the card details and click Submit payment.

<h2><b>VPS Configuration</b></h2>
<p>
We are now prompted to configure our VPS. A few quick steps are required before we can start using it. Click through to choose a location, an OS, a malware scanner, set a root password and then click Finish setup.
