I've bought pre-paid Mastercard-logo gift cards through the company that owns some malls in my area (Simon Malls) for use specifically for my Disney trips.Shorty82 wrote:Visa Travel Money is a gift card, nothing to special about it. As there's no name on them there's not much you can do but run them through and hope they don't get rejected so the guest doesn't get pissed off.
I've gotten a number of different types of those types of gift cards lately and from different companies, not just Visa. Apparently some of the Brazilian tour groups now issue them to their members.
The first time, I ordered through their website and it came personalized with my name, and I was able to use a second message line on the card to put "Disney Trip 2003".
By the next trip, I had learned that you could get the pre-paid cards directly from the guest services desk at the mall and save the $5 processing fee. But it turns out those cards are *not* customized, and they just come pre-imprinted with "Simon Mall Customer" on them.
Needless to say, I was called "Simon" a few times and "Mr. Customer" at least once on that trip...
