Okay AwardTrailblazers, listen up! Want to rack up some extra points or meet minimum spend on a new credit card without actually spending more money? TheGiftCardShop.com is offering a sweet deal: they're waiving the purchase fees on Visa and Mastercard gift cards when you buy $200 or more. Just use the code HOLIDAY24 at checkout before December 19, 2024.
Why is this awesome? Normally, these gift cards come with a fee, eating into any potential rewards you might earn. By skipping the fee, you're essentially getting free points or cashback! This is especially useful if you're chasing a big welcome bonus.
They've brought back similar deals with different minimums since then too! The best strategy to stay updated is to keep checking back with new promotions being offered, such as the one from December 23-25th of 2025 using code LASTMIN25.
Why This Matters for Your Strategy
News in the points-and-miles world moves fast, and promotional changes often have a short window. If this announcement affects a card or program you hold, log into your awardtrail dashboard to check your current benefit usage, bonus progress, and whether a transfer or redemption makes sense right now — before terms change.
As a general rule: transfer points only when you have a specific redemption in mind — transfers are almost always one-way and non-reversible. If you're unsure of the value, check our redemption guides before acting.
