Unused Gift Cards Part Of The Lost Cash Problem

Gift cards make excellent holiday and birthday presents, especially when you find yourself buying for someone you don’t really know personally, like a co-worker, neighbor or teacher. These cards allow the person to buy what they want, and they’re far more acceptable as a gift than cash. They can be placed in a greeting card or gifted alone, they’re economical and they make shopping for holiday and birthdays a breeze; which is one of the primary reasons they’re one of the most popular gift ideas. There is a problem with gift cards, however, and this problem seems to be growing each and every year. It turns out that unused gift cards are contributing to the ever expanding lost cash problem.

 

How Unused Gift Cards Become Lost Cash

Every year billions of dollars go missing from the bank accounts of average American families all over the country; and a good portion of that money comes from unused gift cards. This money clogs up the treasury in the various states and at the federal level, and it’s essentially been dubbed the lost cash problem.

It turns out that the millions of people who receive gift cards every year may not be using small portions of the amounts on the cards, or they’re failing to use the cards altogether. That two dollars left on your gift card may not seem like a big deal, but then consider what happens when a million people leave two dollars on their gift card. Now you’re beginning to see the crux of the lost cash problem.
