I have been hesitant to add my card because of privacy. I particular the fact that my card is linked to my email. What is your take on it?

How much money value do you lose in this process?

I was buying 1 month of VPN for 5€, but it cost me almost 20€ with all fees (I think it was ethereum) 😂 monero might be better, but small crypto transactions make no sense afaik

I do not know, but anonymity costs. Bitcoin is a lot cheaper at least for small amounts (idrk how monero works so no idea for large amounts) but not anonymous and not all that fast in transactions.
