Giftcardmall (and giftcards.com) now limit Visa loads to $250. No more $500 cards, Change happened sometime in 2020.
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 30K 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.

I do not know who is not making logic. With the same key stroke(s), thief would always want to make their work more productive. A $500 VCGC is much more productive than a $300 Lowe's card. There will be another step to liquidate the Lowe's value. All MS world knows it....

Sorry if this has been asked/answered before. I tried searching for an answer, and hope that it is OK to ask.
I have an old Serve Blue card, $0 balance never used, and have several Staples BHN Yellow debit gift cards from a client . My vendor I want to pay only allows one payment (Cannot split) so trying to load the Staples BHN yello debit cards onto my Blue Serve card.
Was told by GiftCardMall that AmEx is blocked/cannot load via online method.
Questions:
- Can i load the gift cards via FD/DG onto the AmEx Blue Serve?
- Is there an alternative card to use that is not blocked by GiftCardMall?
- Any other suggestions on how to load to an this or alternative card?
Thanks!

All, I purchased some giftcardmall gift cards to pay my insurance. Got thru about 10-12 transactions BUT now the cards are not working via my insurance companies web site. I still have a few to do and want to use. I call the insurance company and said it would work. It still does not. If I go use at another site, the GC works properly.
Who should I call to get this unlocked agian? Gift card provider or insurance company. I tried insurance copany and they said eveerything good on their end...
Any help appreciated.
Thank you.
