Can u anyone plz tell wat is vanilla card?
A Vanilla gift card is a prepaid card , in a prepaid card the card is received by the person as a gift or incentive from other person For eg, an Employer giving it to his employess as Christmas bonus or Parents gifting it to their child for his birthday shoping etc etc. Basic features are :
1. U cannot take out the money from ATM through that card in case of a gift card , can only use to buy gifts.
2. Then it has other activation charges. so probably a 25$ gift card would finally cost 27.5$ - 28$
3. A gift card probably cannot be recharged back and even if it has the option , the guy who gifted you can only recharge it back , u cannot fill money in it by yourself.
4. Then it comes in particular denomination like 25$ , 50$ , 100$ etc etc.
5. IF you are trying to do online transaction through this card , it wont accept mostly unless there is a particular option availaible in it as "Prepaid card" , if you would try it as a normal Visa the transaction would probably fail.
This is the best i know about it , hope it helps and correct me if i am wrong
