Do paypal have/can issue a pre-paided credit card?

Hi all,

Ok I have a 'credit' card from the bank, registered with PayPal. I avoid tapping in my card number when I use PayPal.

Unfortunately, not all retailers accept or have a PayPal option.

I want to avoid using my bank credit card (tapping the number) for all the obvious reasons.

I was hoping paypal have a prepaid card option. A real card with visa type number of its own.

I could then put...300/500 on the card and use it anywhere.

The big advantage would, of course, be if the card were compromised I would only lose the amount I had prepaid!

I could then cancel the card and get a new one with a different number.

Has paypal anything like this???
