Virtual Credit Cards vs Gift Cards

Importantly, virtual Visa debit or credit cards are not the same as gift cards. In most cases, gift cards are anonymous payment cards of a certain amount. In short, the balance is the same amount that was paid for the card. Alternatively, virtual Visa cards are often a specific account and are only limited by the number of funds in the account at a given time. Alternatively, if a virtual Visa card is considered a credit card, it would be limited by the credit limit applied to the card.

Credit Card Balance

As mentioned, the credit card balance is limited by the credit limit applied to the card. So, if a cardholder has a USD 20,000 limit, then the card could be used for up to USD 20,000 in purchases before it is unable to process further purchases.

Gift Card Balance

As mentioned, the gift card balance is limited by the number of funds attributed to the gift card. So, if a gift card is purchased for USD 100, then the gift card can only be used for up to USD 100 in purchases.
