It's good if you have an Amex card and want to convert to MasterCard and use it anywhere don't accept Amex. Digital card only and can be added to Apple Pay, Google Pay and , and SamsungPay.
Offer is valid until 18/12/21 at 11.59pm. ‘No Card Fees’ only applies to Digital Mastercard Gift Card on www.card.gift. The offer is valid for a maximum value of $2,000 per transaction. The offer is valid for one use per person.
There are no fees associated with the Card.gift Gift Card in a digital format, but please note if you decide to purchase a physical format Gift Card, you will be required to pay an issue fee of $4.95 plus standard Australia Post postage costs to receive the physical Gift Card. Note also that any Gift Card that operates on the EFTPOS or MASTERCARD payment systems will cost you an additional charge of $4.95.
What? There are a million layers of buried fees here.
This is overly complex and not even remotely worth the effort/risk lol.
Does this mean $4.95 fee for each transaction?
Normally just to activate the card not per transaction
Want to get the card? No card fee..
You mean you want to use the card? Oh, that's extra!
Complicated and no deal
Yep, no deal here
the best use case I can think of is to use this once, in the next 2 days, for something that you don't want to be charged for again.
Only load the value of that transaction.
Then never touch it again.
Spend $3k on these to meet minimum spend on a brand new credit card for bonus?
That might be a good use
I have a free physical card from my bank, can use google pay.
So, what's the benefit for me using this digital card?
Can you buy with amex with no fee then use where amex is charged fees?
hm….I am confused what's the point?
Update: I purchased one to try out, and their SMS link doesn't work, sends to dead link. Now to wait 48 hours for support to respond…
Not worth it now!
Not worth it now!
I'm not entirely sure how it was worth it before…
You might as well just get Revolut and generate a virtual card number
AmEx will simply treat you as high risk customer if you go for this. Potentially will attract financial check.
Bankwest Zero Plantinum is better. Why do we have to register for this card???
So maybe good for 'new customer' sign ups, ie Uber Eats etc. Not an Eftpos transaction, so no fees?
Has anyone successfully purchased one of these?
Took the plunge and bought a few. Order confirmation email arrived instantly, and emails with registration links arrived about 20 minutes later.
Clicking on the registration link takes you to a page where you fill in your mobile number, and they’ll send you an activation link via SMS. Weirdly, one of the registration links initially took me to a page with a totally unrelated low value GC, but it worked correctly after a refresh.
Pretty handy for meeting the min spend on a new CC I guess, otherwise kinda pointless.
When did you order it? Today or yesterday?
This morning.
There was no fee, by the way. Looks like the $4.95 fee mentioned in one of the comments above is waived as part of this deal.
I ordered one yesterday and only got the confirmation email but not the card
Still waiting for the subsequent email. Anyone had similar issues? Thought it would be instant delivery
Yes, remember the Vodafone order? In the same boat again! I paid by Gpay on the smartphone. Try to stack with Revolut deal.
So the bargain is 3 days with no card fee?
