The Gift Card Shop Gift Card

The Gift Card Shop Gift Card is only redeemable at TheGiftCardShop.com. Card is not reloadable and not redeemable for cash except as required by law.

When paying at the pump, some merchants can authorize and hold up to $100 or the full value of your card, whichever amount is smaller to ensure you have sufficient funds. So, make sure you always know your balance. To avoid the hold at the pump, give your card to the attendant to prepay for the gas.

Some purchases require a preauthorization wherein the merchant sends in a transaction for a higher amount than the purchase. This most often occurs at the gas pump or at a restaurant. When dining out, restaurants typically add 20% to your total to account for the tip. We are required to approve and hold funds based on the estimated total until the merchant finalizes the transaction. Merchant finalization can take up to 7 business days.

No, we cannot transfer your funds onto a physical gift card.

Gift Cards cannot be used at ATMs nor can you get cash back from any of your purchases.
