  • what do you mean by electronic gift card?
    does it have a 16 digit visa credit card number?

    just buy a gift card at coles or wooles, it's no different to a debit or credit card.

  • yeah it is a standard visa credit card number but it expires problem with buying a gift card is i can't find any free postage

      so, you're in Perth. Are there no Woolworths or Coles there?
      Really…

  • i don't have a real card it is just the number so i can't walk in & spend it

    yes you still can..

    tell the staff to enter the digit manually into their eftpos machine.

    • Spend a dollar, and asked for the rest in cashout.

        No cashout with Credit

        • if it's a pre-loaded visa then it's a debit card, so arguably you can.

        • That's incorrect Morien.
          However, some visa gift cards have a clause at the back that says "No Cashout"
          And usually you can use those visa gift cards to buy normal gift cards as other people have suggested.

        • Really? I tried doing cash out with a credit transaction and it just did the transaction, no cash out. Was told it wouldn't if I chose credit.

    • I have a visa gift card that's supposed to be like a credit card, you need to sign the docket - like a normal credit card.

    You can buy an egift card from Bunnings with no fees if that would be useful for you.

  • No Cah out with Gift cards

    • OP it's not clear on the card type, but by adding "visa" in there one must assume it is a visa debit as opposed to a retail stores gift card.

    Why don't you pay a bill or credit an account ( Phone, net, health funds) with it.
