I highly doubt you’ll succeed at this. Online gift cards are almost always processed differently and don’t get restaurant credit. Not connected to this, I have sometimes succeeded at calling a restaurant out of town that doesn’t have online gift cards and asking them to mail someone a gift card. Like if I’m getting a gift for someone, they’ll ship the card to someone. It would take some effort, but if you know you’ll be in one of the cities in the future might be worth trying.

I Live in NYC..so obviously can get use out of this, but generally speaking it is amazing how hard Chase made it to use these credits.
