Do Gift Cards Expire?
That being said, you should be aware that there are some gift cards that have fees for inactivity. They can only be charged if the card wasn’t used for over a year. In addition, the charge can only be incurred on a monthly basis.
This wasn’t always the case…
The CARD Act of 2009
This statute also had a few clauses of when gift cards can expire and when they can charge inactivity fees. Thanks Obama!
