The CVS Moneycard is issued when people return goods without receipts. Or several years ago its registers could not refund items correctly when payment was made with ExtraCare Bucks which CVS advertises them as good as cash but when you need to return something bought with such, the register would not allow a refund. The workaround is to issue a Moneycard. It is an equivalent of Store Credit. You cannot even use it to buy CVS own GC, let alone anything else.
