Cards need an URL / URI field (for favicons, autofill...)

When I add a new entry with the type “Card”, I miss and URL field.
For all cards (coffee shops, furniture stores, other shops with a bonus card program) I can enter an URL and Bitwarden could download the favicon for this URL.

Just started using BW and I totally agree. Every Type should have a URL field available. In this day and age URLs are used everywhere… My Mastercard has a website that I can login to. My personal info does also. And same for Secure Notes.

Couldn’t it easily be added to the Custom Fields, so we could just add it if we wanted?? I’m having to add my bank URL to my Mastercard as a Custom Field / Text. And I can’t click on it to open the website? Annoying…

Also this could be used to only show the card on the relevant website.

This seems substantially similar to the following Feature Request (which I would encourage you to vote for):

It is primarily irrelevant to that. I believe that a cursory observation of both would immediately demonstrate the differences between them: what you quote requests support for autofill when a combination of keys are invoked, whereas my proposition proposes support of autofill when a certain domain or URI is visited, as is currently true for Account entries.

The functionality that you are describing here is called auto-filling “on page load”, which currently is only implemented for vault items of the Login type. The Feature Request that I linked above asks for the “autofill on page load” functionality to be offered also for credit cards, as is evident both from the post title (“Credit card autofill…on page load”) and in the last paragraph of the top post in that request thread:

Unless I have completely misunderstood what functionality you are actually requesting in the current thread, it seems that we are both asking for the very same thing (although, yes, in addition to the autofill “on page load” feature that we are both requesting, my request also asks for hotkey-based autofill). If you still think that the linked Feature Request Credit card autofill using hotkey or on page load is “primarily irrelevant” to your request, then it would be a good idea for you to explain in more detail how your requested “autofill when a certain domain or URI is visited” is different from my requested “autofill on page load”.

In my view, providing a URL for ALL item types (except perhaps Secure Notes) is essential. Almost all Bank/Credit Cards, Bank Accounts etc have associated logins requiring URL/credential support - and have done for many years - and the lack of a link betwen the card and its associated online login is a major flaw.

I am looking at Bitwarden as part of a Cyber Security bundle I am putting together for my business to provide as a part of our IT service portfolio. I really like how Bitwarden works generally, its wide browser and mobile device support, its security model and its structure allowing multiple individual/business/family vaults. But the lack of a URL and login credentials for Bank Cards rules it out of contention for our requirement. My existing (but ageing) password manager app has supported URLs in all record types for 20 years - although other aspects of its design mean I’m looking to replace it with an altogether more modern product.

Come on Bitwarden, please implement this as your product isn’t a credible solution without it. I can’t believe this suggestion was made in Oct 2020 and is still unimplemented, nor to be honest that so few have supported it!

It’s 2024. How is this not yet implemented? I’m evaluating Bitwarden (coming from 1Password), and the lack of a URL field or customizable field that allows for a hyperlink is glaring.

We should be able to add any field (URL, address, phone, etc.) to any item.

This missing feature is a nonstarter for me. I will resume my evaluation in the future.

@BEEDELLROKEJULIANLOC @grb @ChrisMooreGB I merged your posts with this existing feature request to the same topic.

Alongside that, I also added “(for favicons, autofill…)” to the title.

Thank you, @Nail1684.


You’re correct, @grb. Apologies for being a git.
