Yes. Just as with other payment methods, certain purchases may not be eligible for returns or refunds, regardless of whether a gift card was used. These typically include:
- Digital goods or downloads (music, movies, e-books, software)
- Subscriptions or services
- Perishable goods (such as food or flowers)
- Final sale items
Retailers list these restrictions in their return policy, so it’s best to review before purchasing.
💡 Tip: If buying non-returnable items, consider spending gift cards fully in one purchase to avoid complications.
