Cash Gifts vs Gift Cards – Which Is a Better Gift to Give?

August 21, 2019 By Jeffery Leave a Comment

There are several ways in which you can gift someone. For instance, you may opt to simply give them a hard cash gift. Or you may opt to give them a gift card instead. There are, of course, other options like those of buying (tangible) presents. But in this article, we will be focusing specifically on cash gifts and gift cards. We will be trying to see what the pros and cons of both cash gifts and gift cards are.

Cash Gifts Pros – Advantages of giving cash gifts

The main advantages associated with cash gifts are in terms of flexibility and convenience.

You see, hard cash can be used (almost) anywhere, and it can be used to pay for (pretty much) anything the recipient wants. In this regard, it is unlike a gift card: which tends to come with limitations in terms of where it can be used and, in some cases, what it can be used to pay for.

It helps too that hard cash can be used straightaway (upon being received). It is therefore unlike a gift card, which sometimes has to be activated or registered before it can be used.

Furthermore, hard cash transactions are largely anonymous. So the person to whom you gave a hard cash gift can use it without the fear that he is being monitored/tracked (in terms of what he is using the cash to pay for). Gift cards are different – because the moment you register a gift card, you associate the card with yourself, and the things you pay for using the card can possibly be tracked. You can get to see just how true this is whenever you check your gift card’s transaction history. But then, it may not be a big deal if you are not using the card for ‘sensitive’ things… Still, if anonymity is preferred, you use hard cash. Otherwise if you opt for a gift card, there may be a risk of it not being used, if the person you gave it to fears being tracked…

At yet another level, it is worth remembering that unlike gift cards, cash gifts don’t come with expiration dates. It is said that a great deal of money in gift cards ends up ‘going to waste’ when the cards reach their expiry dates without being fully utilized. When you give someone a cash gift, you don’t have such worries of it reaching its expiry date without being fully utilized!

Cash Gifts Cons

One problem with cash gifts is in the fact that they are so impersonal. Gift cards, on the other hand, tend to be more personalized. This is very important, when it comes to gifting because as we all know, it is the gesture that counts. Sometimes, when you give a cash gift to someone who is not needy, you fear that the whole thing may be misinterpreted. But with gift cards, such fears are allayed.

Another problem with cash gifts is in the fact that they can be potentially misused, or even abused. Like, for instance, if you are gifting a kid/teen, and you give him a big amount of cash (in the name of a ‘gift’), there is no knowing what he may use the cash for. For instance, whereas it is highly unlikely that a gift card could be used to pay for drugs or for gambling, hard cash can very easily be used for such things.

Gift Cards Pros- Advantages of giving gift cards

One advantage associated with gift cards is in the fact that they are more personalized than cash gifts. Cash gifts feel rather impersonal, almost cold (and may sometimes be perceived as ‘demeaning’). This can be very important if, for instance, you are trying to gift someone who is financially comfortable. You find that you can’t give him $100 because it would be a drop in the ocean. But when you give them a gift card, it feels better… It is the gesture that counts.

Another advantage associated with gift cards is in the fact that they have less potential to be misused or abused. It is highly unlikely that someone would use a gift card to pay for drugs or to pay for gambling. So the gift card can come in handy when you are trying to gift, say, a young teen yet whom you are afraid that if you give hard cash, it would be spent on ‘vices’.

Gift Cards Cons

One problem associated with gift cards (when they are compared to hard cash) is in the fact that they tend to come with all manner of restrictions. If, for instance, you received a certain store’s gift card, you may find that you can’t use the card to pay for stuff elsewhere. For instance, if you received a McDonald gift card, you can’t use it at Walmart. Even if you received, say, a Visa-branded or MasterCard-branded gift card that isn’t restricted to a specific store, you may still find that there are still some limitations. That is like where, for instance, you find that you can’t pay for certain things with the gift card or where you can’t use the gift card internationally.

Another problem associated with gift cards is in terms of cost. So you find that the gift card itself has to be paid for. If you are gifting someone $50 through a gift card, you find that you need to have the $50, plus, say, another $2 – $5 (depends on the card) to pay for the card itself.

Yet another problem associated with gift cards is in that they tend to have expiration dates, unlike cash. A lot of money in gift cards is said to go unused when they reach their expiration dates without having been fully utilized. Cash, on the other hand, doesn’t expire.

August 14, 2019 By Jeffery Leave a Comment

Through the prepaid gift cards online portal, you can check your Prepaid Visa or Prepaid MasterCard gift card balance at any time and from anywhere. The portal also makes it possible for you to register and activate your prepaid gift card. Furthermore, through the portal, you can get to view the transaction history/statement for your Prepaid Visa or Prepaid MasterCard gift card.

How do I check the Balance on my Prepaid Visa or MasterCard Card

To check your Prepaid Visa gift card balance online, follow these 3 simple steps:

  1. Go to the Prepaid gift cards online portal, by keying in its address (mygiftcardsite.com) into your browser.
  2. Once you are at the Prepaid gift cards online portal, you will find two spaces where you are supposed to enter your card number and the card’s security code. There may also be another space where you are supposed to enter a captcha code, to verify that you are human. The card number and card’s security code are to be found on the card itself. The card number is on the front side of the card, whereas the security code is at the back side of the card, just below the signature block. So all you have to do is get hold of your Prepaid Visa or Mastercard gift card, view the card’s number and card’s security code and then enter both numbers into the respective spaces. If you are required to enter a security code/captcha code, enter it too into the space meant for it.
  3. Having entered the card number, security code (and, if required, captcha code) into the respective spaces, click on the ‘Log In’ button which is to be found towards the bottom end of the page. You will then be taken to a screen where you will be able to view your Prepaid Visa gift card balance straightaway.

After logging in that way, you can also click to view your prepaid Visa gift card transaction history/statement.

How to register a Prepaid Visa or MasterCard gift card online

Registering your Prepaid Visa gift card makes it possible for you to use the card for online, mail order and phone order transactions. To register a Prepaid Visa gift card online, follow these 3 steps:

  1. Go to the Prepaid gift cards portal, at mygiftcardsite.com.
  2. Once you are at the Prepaid Visa gift cards portal, enter the card number (which is to be seen on the front side of the card) into the space meant for it. Then enter the card’s security code (which is to be seen on the back side of the card, just below the signature block) into the space meant for it. If required, enter the captcha code (as indicated on the screen) into the space meant for it.
  3. After entering the card number, security code and, if required, captcha code into the respective spaces, click on the ‘Log In’ button. Once logged, click to indicate that you wish to register the card and fill in the required information to complete the registration.

Do you have to register a Prepaid Visa or MasterCard gift card?

Well, you can use a Prepaid gift card even without registering it. But then, you wouldn’t be able to make online, phone order or mail order purchases using such an unregistered Prepaid gift card. A gift card that can’t be used for online, phone order or mail order payments has rather limited value. Registering the card (which takes as little as 2 minutes) makes it possible for you to use the card for online, mail order and phone order transactions.

How to activate a Prepaid Visa or MasterCard gift card online

To activate a Prepaid Visa gift card online, follow these 3 steps:
