Giftcards.com is currently offering free shipping on Visa gift cards through 9/30/15 when you use the code FREEUSPS915. The code only works for the purchase of up to $1,500 in gift cards, since purchasing more requires a method of shipping which isn’t free. In the past similar codes have only worked on select accounts, so this may not work for everyone.
While the $1.99 first class shipping fee is waived, the $4.95 $6.95 per card fee still applies. This means the total cost for a $500 card is $506.95.
Giftcards.com uses Visa cards issued by Bancorp. These cards work well to load Redbird at Target along with Bluebird/Serve at Walmart.
Note: You cannot use Amex gift cards to purchase these gift cards, but all normal credit cards should work.

It seems the fee gone up. It is $6.95 per card now.
I bought some of these for the first time recently and see the charge posted in the merchant category “Advertising Services”. Anyone know if this would qualify for 3X MR on the Business Gold Rewards card if advertising is the chosen 3X category?
I received the same message, the deal is dead.
Deal possibly dead early… I get “We’re sorry. This code is currently not active. Your discount has not been applied.”

[…] Free Shipping on Visa Gift Cards Returns at Giftcards.com […]
Do the major portals pay their 0.5% using the coupons or is the CB disqualified?
How many days after ordering these have people received them in the mail? Can you use the coupon code for free shipping for more than one order?
Thanks
In my experience they take about a week and I have successfully used the same code in the past on multiple orders.
thanks a lot Shawn

Is there a safe limit to purchase on these, ie less then 10k/month?
I wish I could tell you, however I’m not comfortable saying what a safe amount would be since I truly don’t know and don’t want to give misinformation.
Can you use them to load Serve online (as debit card)?
Do these cards say “gift card” on them? Always an easier redbird load when they don’t.
Top right typically in white. I get the San Francisco Bay Bridge and can’t see it much however my target doesn’t ask to see the card
They do say “Gift” on the top right in small print, however I have found with many of the designs it is very hard to see.
Shawn. Can I use this cards to reload my Serve at Family Dollar? Also, someone was asking if it’s possible to load Serve online (as debit card). Can you enlighten us please?
No only bank issued cards in your name will work for online debit loads. You may be able to use one or two, however Amex will generally ask you to confirm your bank account information when adding an online debit card.
As for Family Dollar, they should work.
Are these billed as “giftcards.com” ??which automatically would seem to cause a flag. Especially AmEx.
I have never had a problem. Remember they sell a lot of gift cards. With that said, it does come billed from Giftcards.com.
That does seem to happen randomly and I don’t know if there is any rhyme or reason.
2x $500 order cancelled for no reason, callled AE and they said not on their end, “you are good to go up to your 32K credit limit”
Hi; Does using the Chase Ink cards give 5X at Giftcards.com? Love your blog. Keep up the good work.
No. From my experience it only earns 1X.
can we use Citi credit cards to purchase these?
thanks.
That has worked for me several times in the past couple of months without issue.
OK, hopefully it will post as a purchase for me too. I’ll do a small test order.
The order is posting as a purchase? On what citi cards? Hopefully we get an update that tries it on this promo
I have used a Citi ThankYou Preferred and a Premier. I recommend setting your cash advance limit to $0 if you are worried.
Are you loading the full $500 or $49,99 at a time?
They load the full $500 at a time in my experience.
I did 496 because of the fee, otherwise it won’t work
Doesn’t work at Kate or WM. I got a call after placing an order and haven’t been able to get an order through since. They’re a PITA.
I have a lot of experience with these cards and they do work at Walmart both at the registers and the kiosk despite being issued by Bancorp. The last time I successfully loaded them at Walmart was two days ago.
I have had success loading bluebird at the Kiosk with these in the past. Yesterday and today I cannot use them at the kiosk, register, or even to buy a money order. It is giving the message “debit is down”. Has anyone else experienced this?
I loaded mine into Green Dot at WM today. I detest how they assign you a pin.
Are you sure you can load these cards to BlueBird? Vanilla Visa cards are issued by Bankcorp as well.
