What a scam!!!! I will NEVER buy a gift card from this place again! I hope i can help others to avoid this company. You will be charged monthly fees until all of the money is gone. An "inactivity fee". What a joke. Do yourself a favor and avoid this company at all costs!

The monthly fees on this card are out of line. I was saving my gift cards for a big purchase, but went to use it today and there were no funds left on the card. The back of the card states, “At the beginning of the 13th month from the last day of card activity, a $3.95 Inactivity Fee will be deducted from the Card balance each month that the Card remains inactive, except where prohibited by law.” What isn’t stated is that the “activity” is the actual activation of the card!!! This is not fair and should not be legal. The card should state that the fees begin 13 months after initial PURCHASE of the card, not the first use of the card.

DO NOT BUY - SCAM! I received this card as a gift in 2022, but I never activated it. The back of the card clearly states that "At the beginning of the thirteenth month from the last day of card activity, a $3.95 Inactivity fee will be deducted from the Card balance each month that the Card remains inactive". I didn't activate this card until May of 2025. There was never any card activity. That doesn't matter. They simply bled the card dry anyway. I had to deal with a foreign call center that was slow to answer and would not put the money back.

We appreciate your feedback, but all gift cards are activated at the time of purchase by the cashier where the card was bought. So the card had been active and ready to spend for three years (going off the information provided). This is for any gift card purchased in stores, not only our products. We hope this has not soured your experience with gift cards in general and you consider Fancards for future gift card purchases.
I've been trying to reload my prepaid fancard at CVS where I usually go to around twice a month for reloading and my card is being declined it says that my card is inactive so then I went to Walgreen's and it to says my card is inactive then I called fancard customer service number around twenty times and I get a message saying that this number is unavailable please try your call again later so then I emailed fancard customer service support and never got a reply back. I'm not sure if this company has went down & under & out but either way as a customer for years I wasn't informed of them shutting their business down permanently and if that's the case fancard is bad business and extremely unprofessional and not trustworthy

Hi Leslie - We are very much still in business, and we apologize for the frustration you've experienced trying to contact us. I verified your cardholder status and that you have an active card. Please email [email protected] so we can better understand the problem and he will be happy to address your issue.
I bought the card s a way to buy online game things and it will not work. Matter of fact, I've tried it online at several places and it doesn't work. Now, I can go to my convenience store ND it'll work fine. Overall not a good card.

I love fancards! Money is so easy to transfer from bank to card! When you make a purchase, you are notified within a few minutes of your purchase and remaining balance! So much easier than carrying a lot of cash around! If you have a question, a real person will answer it for you! That is a rare quality these days! I will definitely recommend this card to everyone!

Fancards is easy to use. I always know exactly how much I am spending. I love getting notifications about purchases and I don’t have to worry about my card being compromised. Plus I love everyone knowing what team I cheer for.
