What portal is currently offering the highest payout for GCM?
Check cashbackmonitor and cashbackholic for current payouts. Be sure to review the T&C for GCM at each portal as some offer lower payouts for Visa GCs.
As of 8/26, Amex gift cards cannot be used to buy Visa gift cards
VGC issued by metabank. Cards come activated.
-------------------------
Monthly Limit is 15K per GCM account for a revolving 30 days. Once you hit 15K, GCM will display a message on the screen letting you know you hit the limit.
Start out slow 1k and then another 1k - they will call to verify the card, and shipping address. Next order they will not call. Orders under 2k have free shipping.
If you get this error:
This transaction was not completed. The transaction was not submitted correctly, or has been declined by your card issuer. You can try again with a different card or review your payment information for any necessary corrections.
- Your account is blocked for the day, try again the next day. Some ppl report being permanently blocked.
Direct support Numbers is 877.426.2551
Warning: Orders can be lost or stolen.

Is there any reason not to use Giftcards.com?
Do they allow AGC?
If so, seems fairly easy to grab AGC through a portal and then giftcards.com for the VGC - should break close to even.
Am I missing something obvious?

Does anyone know another number at GCM to call to activate the GC without the codes? The 866-357-7391 number doesn't work any more due to ongoing "Emergency" conditions.

you could try to call the lost or stolen number and see if they will transfer you. Beware of long hold times, though.

the Macerich dead link doesn't work anymore. Nor does the link on the Macerich web page. I emailed Macerich to fix the link on their webpage.

There was a message on their website last night indicating they were having issues with their telephone system.

Idk - that's why I asked a few posts up if anyone knew if they would work - I have a new batch of AGC otw (but none in hand) so I didn't know if anyone had any data points for it.
