Can I get a cash refund instead of a gift card balance?

No. Refunds for purchases made with a gift card are almost always returned as store credit or directly back to the gift card balance. Retailers rarely, if ever, exchange a gift card refund for cash, unless required by law in your country or state.

💡 Tip: If you live in a region with consumer protection laws requiring partial cash refunds for small remaining balances, check your local regulations.
