What are the benefits of having a complete US identity, postal address, and virtual credit card number?

Having a complete set of "US identity + postal address + virtual credit card number" might sound like a movie plot, but in real online life, it can indeed bring many practical "benefits," especially for those dealing with overseas websites, apps, shopping, and virtual services. Below are some common uses:

1. Registering for US-Exclusive Accounts or Services

Many overseas websites/apps/platforms are only open to US users, or offer more features to US users:

Platform Advantage of Having a US Identity
Apple ID (US Store) Download apps not available in the China store, such as ChatGPT, Midjourney, etc.
Google Play (US Store) Access US-exclusive apps or games, get early access to updates.
PayPal (US Account) Open a US account linked to a US credit card for more flexible payment receiving.
Netflix, Hulu, HBO Max Use US plans for more content, and pay with a virtual credit card.
Amazon (US) Shopping, selling, subscribing to Kindle Unlimited, etc., all require a US address + payment method.
Spotify (US) Register a US account to enjoy US free trials and family plan benefits.

2. Making Overseas Virtual Purchases or Subscriptions

Many websites restrict credit card countries or billing addresses and do not accept domestic card payments. In such cases:

  • Virtual Credit Card (VCC) + US Address = Easily solves payment issues
  • Suitable for: Subscribing to memberships (Netflix, Hulu, ChatGPT Plus, Disney+); Purchasing VPS, domains, cloud servers (e.g., AWS, Linode, DigitalOcean); Using foreign APIs or tools (e.g., OpenAI, ScrapingBee)

3. Engaging in Cross-Border Business, E-commerce, or Arbitrage

If you are in digital marketing, overseas CPA/promotion, or cross-border e-commerce, having this information makes you appear more like a "local," granting access to more resources:

  • Apply for US platform accounts (Shopify, eBay, Stripe)
  • Increase credibility (prevent risk control flags)
  • Create US-based social media accounts (Facebook, TikTok, X) to simulate a real American user

4. Registering or Activating Various Free Trials

Many services offer free trials or discounts specifically for "US users":

Platform Free Trial Conditions
OpenAI Plus Only supports US credit cards or US Apple ID payment
AWS Register a US account for a 1-year free tier, requires US address + credit card
Adobe Registering a US account makes it easier to access full trials

5. Bypassing Regional/Country Restrictions

For example:

  • Apps not available on the China App Store can be downloaded from the US Store
  • OpenAI prohibits API usage from China, but US users are unrestricted
  • US platforms (e.g., Cash App, Venmo) are not open to Chinese users

⚠️ Notes & Risks:

Item Risk / Notes
Virtual Credit Card Some sites verify the real billing address and BIN number; virtual cards may not always pass.
US Address Incorrect state/zip code combinations may be rejected; requires standard format matching the state.
Identity Information Must not be used for illegal purposes, such as impersonation or fraud, as this constitutes a crime.
Stability It is recommended to use specialized service providers or platforms to purchase long-term valid virtual cards/addresses for better stability.
