This is the thread for 2018. The previous discussion can be found here.
Giftcards.com (and giftcardmall) now limit Visa loads to $250. No more $500 cards, Change happened sometime in 2020.
Check cash back portals to help cover the fees. Around the holidays there is usually free shipping. http://www.cashbackmonitor.com/cashback-store/giftcards.com/
Limit 5k/ every 48 hours (2 orders under 2.5k including the fees). However, system will reportedly "error out" if more than two orders are attempted within two days.
Cards must be activated before use. Orders usually arrive in 5-7 days.
Select the free letter on the left instead of paying for a card on the right of the screen to save money.
Warning: Orders can be lost or stolen. Call to have them reissued.

From my understanding the $5,000 order limit every 48 hrs is actually based on calendar days, eastern time correct? So if I placed a $2,500 order on 9/11 9pm ET, a $2,500 order on 9/12 3pm ET, I should be allowed to place another order now, instead of needing to wait until after 9pm ET today?

Anyways, you've been a member for two years with 12 unhelpful, antagonizing replies to others. You must hate yourself.

It was a simple question AFTER I read the wiki. I was afraid of dealing with a possible order cancellation and $2,500 pending charge on my CC (with an already low limit) for a week.

They won't even let you add it to your cart. You get a red error at the top and it tells you the max you can order.
