Can international gift cards be used in any country?
International gift cards can be used in any country depending on the card type. An International prepaid card, such as a prepaid Visa or Mastercard, can be used in multiple countries worldwide - generally wherever Visa prepaid card and Mastercard gift card are accepted.
Another popular option for international gift cards is country-specific digital gift cards. This is an ideal option for businesses wishing to send rewards to global teams; by purchasing an international gift card from the recipient’s country (and in their currency), the recipient is guaranteed that the card can be used and purchases won’t be subject to any currency conversion issues.
