Maybe start with your bank?
My local (Central European) bank offered virtual cards service yesterday to which I declined setting them up on site, will strongly reconsider now, thanks!
Maybe a good time to call up the bank (or other banks) and ask them if they provide this or any other service that would prevent you from needing to cancel physical cards in case of these ever-increasing security incidents?
Late edit: just checked it out and the virtual cards can be ordered via the banking app, either permanent virtual or one-time use where the card auto-expires after the purchase has gone through. That's really neat! (Not gloating but sharing what I've learned, hope you can find similar security in your bank offerings).
I doubt I'll have any influence on the products any one bank in my country offers, but it doesn't hurt to ask.
