Example: xxxx-xxxx-____-xxxx or ____-xxxx-xxxx-xxxx
That way they don't have to input the entire number, but they do need to have the card handy. Or memorize their number.

That would be insecure for the customers on your site. They would have to enter their CC Number every time they login, which would mean it could be easy for hackers to get CC info of them. With a CC number you can do quite a lot and I know that it won't be hard for a hacker to find out the security code of the card and expire date.
A better method to secure this is to only allow the computer (which purchased the membership on your site) to access the account. Other people who want to enter the account will get a message that the account has been limited. The account can than only be unlimited by the account owner. This would be a clever system.
Another way would be to only allow an IP to login to the account. And a user can than buy (for example $10) an extra IP, which can login to the account.
I'm currently working on such a system for my sites
