Scratchcards are sold at ecommerce sites which makes them significantly more accessible. If you really want to be "anonymous" (with very big quotes) you can buy gift cards for those sites with cash then order to a collection point. Otherwise, sure, it's not as good as paying with cash but all there's a trail for is that you bought Mullvad credits that cannot be tied to any account.

Good point regarding ecommerce shops, was not aware they were sold there!
