Gift Cards for MC or Visa

rms1954 · ‎06-06-2019

Anyone know where I can purchase an actual physical gift card for MC or Visa?

Walmartt, Target, our local Frys or Safeway sells them.

Lowes, Home Depot. Just about anywhere. However, be aware that Visa or MC gift cards often times charge a fee, as opposed to store gift cards. Ask before purchasing.

My bank sells them in their lobby but they charge $4.00 for each to purchase.

Ask at your bank.

We bank with TD and the Visa gift cards are up front fee free if we buy them from there.

In addition to those listed, CVS, Walgreens, etc.

Why is it, when I have a 50/50 guess at something, I'm always 100% wrong?

Is the bank actually called TD? Mine still charges the $4.00 fee and Amercian Express charges $2.95 and I hate that. I did look at "TD" and is says as of November 1 2022 they will no longer cell gift cards.

Effective November 1, 2022, we will no longer sell TD Bank Visa® Gift Cards. This date could be sooner for TD locations that deplete Gift Card stock prior to November 1, 2022.

They can be found at most drug stores and large box stores like Wal-Mart, Meijer, Target, etc. I've only ever purchased a VISA gift card and I'm always charged an additional $3.95.

I purchased VISA gift cards at our local Rite Aid store. The $3.95 charge was for the activation fee of the card itself.

@beckyb1012 yes, it is TD. Haven't bought them since Father's Day and wasn't aware that they did away with that service.
