Is there a particular (probably online) shop or service you go back to?
Two times it happened to me one was a local gas station running a skimmer the other was an online hotel comparison site that turned out to be dodgy.
First was in local paper and caught a few of us out...the second my bank actually contacted me about saying it was dodgy

Don’t save your cards in browsers anywhere.

I cannot agree with this more. It maybe a PITA to have to enter each time but the peace of mind is worth it. Also, if you use a password Manger, which you you should be, do not keep the cars stored in there either.

Or just use a credit card.
If my capital one card is stolen? Odds are, capital one will cancel and re-issue the card before I even notice. Otherwise, I notice it when I skim my transactions while paying my bill. And with a credit card? Absolute worse case scenario, I have a lower limit for a few days while they resolve the fraud. More often they just instantly pretend it never happened and deal with it themselves.
Contrast that with debit cards where you potentially have the equivalent of a hold on your bank account.
I have zero concerns over having my credit card stored in firefox because it really barely affects me if it is stolen. Which is the way to go.
