Prepaid Cards
How are gift cards different from reloadable prepaid cards?
Gift cards are not reloadable—once you’ve spent the balance on the card, it becomes useless. While some gift cards carry the logo of one of the four major payment networks (American Express, Discover, MasterCard or Visa) and can be used anywhere those cards are accepted, other cards can be used only at a single retail chain or within its family of retail businesses.Quick Menu
