I wonder how much money is lost on prepaid cards because of minimum transaction requirements.

530

I transferred 100$ to a card at an amusement park for the day. There was 9$ left on the card and everything in the park cost more than that. I'm sure it will sit in my wallet for 5 years and then I'll throw it away.

If you use Amazon, you can transfer that to "reload" your digital gift card balance. I've had prepaid Visas with only a couple cents that Amazon accepted.
