Balance Information

When you check your balance, you will see several important details about your card status and transaction history.

Available Balance

The available balance represents the funds currently accessible for purchases at any participating merchant.

Transaction History

Recent transactions may take 24-48 hours to appear on your balance statement after purchase completion.

Temporary Holds

Some merchants place temporary holds during authorization, which may temporarily reduce your available balance.

Managing Your Card

Effective card management ensures you maximize the value of your gift card and avoid common issues.

Card Security

Treat your gift card like cash. Store it securely and never share your card number or security code with anyone. Only enter card information on secure websites with HTTPS encryption.

Online Purchases

Your card can be used for online shopping at most retailers that accept your card network. Enter your card details at checkout just as you would with a traditional debit card.

Fees and Expiration

Most cards do not expire, but may be subject to inactivity fees after extended non-use. Regular use or periodic balance checks help avoid these fees.

Verify your available balance is sufficient to cover the transaction. Ensure your card is properly activated and accepted by the merchant.

Lost or Stolen Cards
