I did give my credit card number for large and trusted companies like DigitalOcean, Vultr, etc, but I wouldn't risk my money with a small company.
There are scam companies who offer free VPS and ask credit card for verification purposes and then they ask more and more. And at the end you are going to pay three or four times more than you were bought from a "not free provider".You can read more about these companies on LowEndTalk.com. One of them is https://in.fortacloud.co/cart/free-tier-fortacloud-vps/ and they are in this business for years.
But still I can't say nothing about Joyent. Have someone tried them?
