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.
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.
- A Few people report it is blocked for the day, try again the next day. MOST ppl report being permanently blocked. Or you entered a wrong 3-digit security number.
GCM recommends using the Chrome or Firefox browsers. Be sure you are not using an ad blocker and not disabling any cookie settings (3rd party, tracking, etc.) from the default or you may get this error.
Direct support Numbers is 877.426.2551
Warning: Orders can be lost or stolen. Call to have the cards reissued or canceled. Orders usually arrive in 5-10 days.
Check your cc for pending or posted payments and call about your order if you are concerned it is taking a long time for delivery. Sometimes GCM was taking up to 2 weeks for delivery.

How long did you let he account 'rest' before successfully buying GC again? Also about 2 months?

If an order is cancelled, do you just try and redo the order? Or do you call them to find out why?
Ive been placing a few $1k orders (maybe 5 in total) over the past month spread between 2 diff cards. I used a card last week for the first time for a $1k order. Goes through no prob. Did the same this week with same card, and got an order cancelled message. Really confused.

Does anyone know what Befrugal pays out on GCM? I have not tried that yet, just TCB.

Right, I use Safari as well (I can't seem to be able to click the "Place Order" button when in Chrome). Yet order was cancelled 45 min after being placed. I re-placed that same order today with same card and all the same info. Been pending for 4 or 5 hours now and no cancellation just yet.

Anyone getting this error?
"Error saving data. Please try again"
I get this when I get to the screen of the welcome card selection ( i always type something like person order, card used, date of order) but when I click add to cart I get that message.

My strategy with GCM is finally paying off:
I have been maxing out both my wife's account and mine since January and now we have been getting paid $50-$150 a week
