When you exhaust the card&#8217;s balance, it becomes useless. Another difference is that the recipient can only use a gift card on the issuing merchant&#8217;s website.<\/p>\n<p>Some gift cards are open-loop, which means you can use them to shop from merchants that accept the issuing brand&#8217;s payment cards.
