How do you pay someone with a gift card?

Some gift certificates are limited to one type use, while others can be used multiple times. Gift certificates are provided as corporate gifts and incentives by many companies.

What's the difference between a gift card and a coupon?

If the store does warrant multiple time use, you may receive a fresh gift voucher holding the remaining unspent amount, or the assistant may write the new amount on your existing voucher.

Why do people buy gift cards and vouchers?
