What is a Gift Card?

A gift card is often called a voucher, or gift certificate. It is a prepaid stored-value money card issued by a brand like Burger King, Domino’s, Uber Eats, Chipotle or Roadhouse. The gift card is basically an alternative to credit card or cash for paying for orders within a store location (or online on a retailer website).

Just to make an example, if you have a 100 USD Papa John’s Gift Card, you can use it when you order a coffee in a Dunkin’ Donuts location instead of paying with your credit card or cash. Gift cards can be used at a pysical store location and usually are based on a barcode, PIN QR system. So when you pay for your order, you just need to get your QR code or barcode on the gift card scanned by the cashier or display the gift card number and associated PIN to the cashier at the time of purchase.
