To help minimize this risk, we seek out national brand name merchants and promptly remove a merchant if it becomes evident that its financial condition harms the ability for customers to redeem gift cards from that merchant.  

What if my merchant gift card is either lost or stolen? What are my options?  Top
Merchant gift cards and Dog Paw Gift Certificates are similar to cash, therefore, we are unable to replace them if they are lost or stolen after they are received.
