While registration is not required, we do recommend registering your Gift as most online, mail and telephone order merchants often require that personal information, including name, address and telephone number of the cardholder be verified with the Gift-issuing bank prior to purchase. If you wish to make online, mail or telephone order purchases, you should download the MyCardWallet App and follow the prompts to register your Gift. Unless you register your Gift in advance, there may be no way an online, mail or telephone order merchant can confirm your identity. Without such confirmation, the merchant might decline your purchase, even if there are sufficient funds on the Gift.

Your Tap to Pay Visa Gift Card will no longer work when the remaining value is equal to $0 or the “valid thru” date on the Gift has passed. If funds still remain on your Gift after the “valid thru” date, please call 1 (833) 732-5211 to have a replacement Gift with an updated “valid thru” date issued to you at no cost.

You must advise the merchant how much is available on your Tap to Pay Visa Gift Card. The merchant may complete a split tender transaction and charge the Gift for the available balance. The remaining amount of your purchase would require another form of payment. Note that some merchants may not be able to perform split tender transactions.

Some restaurants and other service-oriented merchants may factor in an additional 20% (or more) to cover any tip you may leave on the purchase. If this occurs, and your total bill, after adding in the additional 20% (or more), exceeds the amount available on the Gift, it will be declined. Accordingly, you may want to ensure that your Gift has an available balance that is 20% (or) greater than your total bill prior to use. Similarly, some hotels chose to factor in additional amounts upon check-in, and it may take up to thirty days after your stay to have any excess amounts held by the hotel added back to your available balance.

No, the physical Tap to Pay Visa Gift Card can only be tapped at a contactless enabled payment terminal. For online spend a virtual card can be issued.

The Wi-Fi/RFID-looking symbol on a debit or credit card is the EMVCo Contactless Indicator*. It indicates that your card can be used to tap to pay on a contactless-enabled payment terminal.

Your contactless card or payment-enabled mobile/wearable device just needs to be within 1 to 2 inches of the Contactless Symbol to initiate a payment

One to two seconds within 1 to 2 inches of the POS terminal should complete the transaction.

It works best when your contactless card or payment-enabled mobile/wearable device is held flat over the Contactless Symbol, versus held at an angle.

Tapping to pay with a Visa contactless card or payment-enabled mobile/wearable device is secure and convenient – perfect for places like fast-food restaurants, grocery stores, coffee shops, vending machines, taxis and more. Just look for the Contactless Symbol at checkout. Tapping to pay is secure because each transaction is accompanied by a one-time code, just like contact EMV. Unlike cash, tapping to pay provides an electronic record of your purchases and gives you all the great functionality and convenience of a Visa card.

Contactless payments, including Visa contactless cards, Google Pay and Apple Pay, use the same NFC (Near Field Communication) technology. Samsung Pay, however, works with both NFC technology and MST (Magnetic Secure Transition) technology, which can be used anywhere you can swipe.
