Agreements with payment processors are needed to process payments on platforms like that, so it's not a feasible thing for a small open source project to pull off IMO.
If you just want limits on virtual cards, some credit cards have that built in already without needing a third party involved, Citi for example.
I'm mostly seeing if I can obfuscate my card details - the card limit is more of a nice feature but not needed
They do that too, because they generate a unique virtual card number each time.
