5 tips to avoid or spend a small remaining balance on a gift card
Written by Piggy.Cards
Typical gift cards found in stores and online have one main problem. They only offer customers specific fixed values. This can be problematic for many reasons. In typical scenarios, customers have a certain amount they are looking to spend while shopping for gift cards. That could be because they have a budget for a gift or need a gift card to buy something specific online like a video game. However, what happens if that value is not available? Piggy Cards solves this common problem in the gift card industry.
