Looking for Prepaid Mastercard?
Discover a Smarter, More Personal Alternative
Many turn to prepaid Mastercard gift cards for simplicity. But they’re not always the most effective or rewarding choice—especially for modern teams and campaigns.
That’s why thousands of businesses are switching to the Freedom-of-Choice Gift Card—a more flexible, transparent, and human way to show appreciation.
Why Prepaid Mastercard Gift Cards Aren’t Always the Best Option
Sure, they’re convenient—but traditional prepaid Mastercard gift cards come with a few issues:
- Hidden fees (activation, maintenance, etc.)
- Limited acceptance, especially online or internationally
- Expiration dates that pressure recipients to spend quickly
- No personal touch—just a generic plastic card
- No insight into what recipients choose or value

Frequently asked questions
Yes! The Freedom-of-Choice gift card gives you the flexibility to select from a variety of brands. For instance, if your gift card has a value of 50 EUR, you can redeem 20 EUR for a gift card at one store. The remaining balance of 30 EUR will stay on your card, ready to be redeemed later. Simply use the same code to access the remaining balance and create a gift card for another store.
Once redeemed, however, the final brand gift card is valid only at the chosen store.
The Freedom-of-Choice Gift Card provides a unique experience with more than 5,000 options to choose from. The selection varies, however, from country to country. Please see our catalog here to see what we offer specifically in your country
As a general rule, the reward is valid for one year from the date of issuance.
This provides recipients with ample time to explore and redeem their preferred gift from a wide range of available options, ensuring flexibility and convenience in their choice.
However, the expiration period may vary depending on the terms set by the issuing company/client. In some cases, the reward may be valid for up to five years from the date of issuance.
Once the reward has been redeemed for a partner/merchant gift card, a new expiration date will apply, based on the terms and conditions of that specific partner/merchant.
