Should the receipt from the purchase of the Business eGift Card be kept?

We strongly suggest that you keep the email receipt from the purchase of the Business eGift Card if you are the purchaser, as we may require it for a refund, exchange or replacement.

How do I check my Available Balance?

The value on the Business eGift Card at any time is its “Available Balance.” You may check your available balance at AmexGiftCard.com or by calling Customer Service at 1-888-846-4308. How is the balance on the Business eGift Card calculated? There are two ways that your Available Balance may be decreased. First, if you make a purchase with the Business eGift Card, we will deduct the full amount of that purchase, including taxes and any other fees, from the Available Balance. Second, if the Merchant authorizes for an amount greater than the actual purchase, the Available Balance will be temporarily decreased by the amount of the authorization until the actual transaction posts, typically until the eighth (8th) day after purchase. Only the final amount of the purchase will ultimately be deducted from the Available Balance. Once the Available Balance reaches zero ($0), the Business eGift Card is no longer valid and you agree that you will no longer use it. However, if a transaction occurs despite an insufficient Available Balance on the Business eGift Card, you agree to reimburse us, upon request, for the amount of the negative balance created on the Business eGift Card.

Can the Business eGift Card be used if its Available Balance does not cover the total purchase price?

Depending on the Merchant’s policy, you may be able to use the Business eGift Card with another form of payment, such as cash, check or another card, to make a purchase. This is known as a “Split Tender Transaction.” Some Merchants do not permit a second form of payment at all. We do not guarantee that a Merchant will permit a Split Tender Transaction. Check with the Merchant for more information on their policies.

How may the Business eGift Card be used at restaurants, hair salons or other merchants that may be expecting a gratuity?

You may use your Business eGift Card on the Merchant website or in connection with a participating Digital Wallet as indicated in these Terms and Conditions for payment at restaurants, hair salons and other Merchants that expect a gratuity. We and/or the Merchant may obtain an authorization for an amount up to 20% more than the total service bill to cover any gratuity that may be added. Be sure that the balance on the Business eGift Card is sufficient to cover the cost of the bill plus any anticipated gratuity. If the transaction is declined, ask the Merchant to obtain an authorization for an amount equal to or less than the Available Balance.

How may the Business eGift Card be used at gas stations?

You may use your Business eGift Card at gas stations in connection with a participating Digital Wallet as indicated in these Terms and Conditions. Gas stations will routinely obtain an authorization on the Business eGift Card for an estimated purchase amount to ensure that the Available Balance will cover the final purchase. To avoid having a gas station obtain an authorization for an amount higher than the Available Balance, we suggest that you prepay inside at the cashier for an amount equal to, or less than, the Available Balance on the Business eGift Card.

What if the Business eGift Card is lost or stolen?

If the Business eGift Card is lost or stolen, contact us immediately at 1-888-846-4308. You must provide your name, email address, Card number, CID, and other details for identification purposes. You agree to give us all reasonable information to help make a complete investigation of the loss or theft of the Business eGift Card.

NO REFUNDS WILL BE PROVIDED FOR AMOUNTS DEBITED FROM YOUR LOST OR STOLEN EGIFT CARD BEFORE YOU NOTIFY US.

Can merchandise purchased with the Business eGift Card be returned?

Merchandise purchased with the Business eGift Card is subject to the Merchant’s return policies. If the Merchant agrees to issue a credit to the Business eGift Card, this amount may not be reflected in the Available Balance until the credit posts, which may take up to eight (8) days.

Can a charge made with the Business eGift Card be disputed?
