In the past, gift cards were something you’d purchase as a last-minute gift or for that hard-to-shop-for person in your life (you know the one). Now, gift cards are much more than that. As a result of the COVID-19 pandemic, gift cards have become a vital payment tool for consumers. While gift cards are still great for office holiday parties or your picky sister-in-law, more consumers are now using gift cards in other ways since most shopping is done online post pandemic!
