Visa's line of vanilla gift cards are prepaid credit cards available in various increments. While these cards can be freely used on a variety of goods and services, you may still prefer cash over the physical card. The cards cannot be used at ATMs, so turning them into cash can be a bit tricky. Fortunately, you can still get cash from a Vanilla Visa gift card with a bit of technical maneuvering, and by relying on external services such as PayPal or Venmo. So, while there is no straightforward way to pull cash from one of these prepaid cards, this wikiHow article will make it as easy as possible!

Things You Should Know

  • Transfer funds from a Vanilla Visa to your bank account via PayPal or Venmo, and then withdraw them as cash. PayPal charges a small fee for using the card, but Venmo does not.
  • Look for a Gift Card Exchange Kiosk in your local mall or grocery store, where you can swap your gift card for cash, albeit for a small fee.
  • Selling your gift card manually may be the best way to maximize your funds if you want to swap the card out for cash.

    Select Card from the available options, then enter your gift card's info, including the card number, expiration date, and CVV. Simply enter your own ZIP code. [2]
    • You may need to register the card with Visa, as Venmo may decline it if the ZIP code goes unrecognized.
    • Venmo charges a 3% fee on money sent with credit cards. A Vanilla Visa is not a credit card, however, so there is no fee attached to using it. [3]

    Once the card has been linked and confirmed, you can use it to send money to a friend or family member, who can then return that money to you.
    • Ensure you have selected the card as the intended payment method when sending the money.
    • Feel free to send the card's full amount, as Venmo will not charge a fee for using it to transfer funds.

    Your gift card is equipped with a card number, an expiration date, and a CVV. Provide PayPal with this info, then click Link Card .
    • If you have any issues adding the card, ensure that you have previously registered it with Visa, as you may need a billing address attached to the card in order for PayPal to approve it.
    • PayPal will charge your card $1.95 within the next few days. This amount will be refunded; it is simply part of PayPal's verification process. [6]

    • Although several sites exist for the specific purpose of selling gift cards online, popular sites like Raise and CardCash do not currently support the sale of Vanilla Visa gift cards.

    From the options listed, select Prepaid Card to submit your Vanilla Visa for cash. This will open the app's gift card scanner.
    • You may have to grant permission for the app to use your camera before using the scanner.
  5. {"smallUrl":"https:\/\/www.wikihow.com\/images\/thumb\/a\/ac\/Get-Cash-from-a-Vanilla-Visa-Gift-Card-Step-29.jpg\/v4-460px-Get-Cash-from-a-Vanilla-Visa-Gift-Card-Step-29.jpg","bigUrl":"\/images\/thumb\/a\/ac\/Get-Cash-from-a-Vanilla-Visa-Gift-Card-Step-29.jpg\/v4-728px-Get-Cash-from-a-Vanilla-Visa-Gift-Card-Step-29.jpg","smallWidth":460,"smallHeight":345,"bigWidth":728,"bigHeight":546,"licensing":"<div class=\"mw-parser-output\"><p>License: <a target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noreferrer noopener\" class=\"external text\" href=\"https:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Fair_use\">Fair Use<\/a> (screenshot)<br>\n<\/p><\/div>"}
    Line up the scanner so that your card is located within the green rectangle on your phone screen. Hold it there for roughly five seconds.
    • Ensure you are in good lighting when scanning your card.
    • If the scanner cannot read your card, you will be prompted to enter its details manually.

    Prepaid2Cash will show you how much money you will receive in exchange for your card, which decreases the faster you want your money. [9]
  8. {"smallUrl":"https:\/\/www.wikihow.com\/images\/thumb\/5\/5d\/Get-Cash-from-a-Vanilla-Visa-Gift-Card-Step-32.jpg\/v4-460px-Get-Cash-from-a-Vanilla-Visa-Gift-Card-Step-32.jpg","bigUrl":"\/images\/thumb\/5\/5d\/Get-Cash-from-a-Vanilla-Visa-Gift-Card-Step-32.jpg\/v4-728px-Get-Cash-from-a-Vanilla-Visa-Gift-Card-Step-32.jpg","smallWidth":460,"smallHeight":345,"bigWidth":728,"bigHeight":546,"licensing":"<div class=\"mw-parser-output\"><p>License: <a target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noreferrer noopener\" class=\"external text\" href=\"https:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Fair_use\">Fair Use<\/a> (screenshot)<br>\n<\/p><\/div>"}
    Prepaid2Cash will need your banking info to transfer the money to you. If you have previously made a transaction in the app, this info should already be stored.
    • Prepaid2Cash may ask for your address as well.

    Paying your bills with a gift card is essentially the same as turning the card into cash, as there are no extra fees attached, and likely allows you to use the card's balance up in one fell swoop.
    • You can use your gift card with any bill provider that accepts Visa as a form of payment.

    Using the gift card, buy something on eBay or Facebook Marketplace that you think you could resell for a decent value.
    • This means of turning your gift card into cash is a bit more labor-intensive, but it may ultimately result in you making more than the card's initial value!
  2. {"smallUrl":"https:\/\/www.wikihow.com\/images\/thumb\/7\/71\/Get-Cash-from-a-Vanilla-Visa-Gift-Card-Step-37.jpg\/v4-460px-Get-Cash-from-a-Vanilla-Visa-Gift-Card-Step-37.jpg","bigUrl":"\/images\/thumb\/7\/71\/Get-Cash-from-a-Vanilla-Visa-Gift-Card-Step-37.jpg\/v4-728px-Get-Cash-from-a-Vanilla-Visa-Gift-Card-Step-37.jpg","smallWidth":460,"smallHeight":345,"bigWidth":728,"bigHeight":546,"licensing":"<div class=\"mw-parser-output\"><p>License: <a target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noreferrer noopener\" class=\"external text\" href=\"https:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Fair_use\">Fair Use<\/a> (screenshot)<br>\n<\/p><\/div>"}
    Resell the item for what you deem to be a fair value. In doing so, you have essentially turned your gift card into cash!
    • You may also consider buying or selling the items in person, either informally or even at a yard sale or flea market.
    • Note that this approach is different from buying and returning items at a merchant.
      • While this may be a way of getting cash from your gift card, it is also a common scam and merchants are therefore cracking down on offering cash for returns on purchases made with a gift card.

    You may wish to turn your Vanilla Visa gift card into cash because it is not accepted at a certain merchant. A clever workaround might be to purchase a gift card to that merchant with your Vanilla Visa. Then, you can use that new gift card, effectively turning your Vanilla Visa into usable "cash."

    Pawn shops will often accept prepaid gift cards, but the return on value will likely be capped at just 50% of the card's actual value. So, while this may not be a recommended approach, it can be viable for those feeling impatient.

    While miles may not be cash, frequent travelers may appreciate turning their gift card's value into miles via United MileagePlus.
    • Unfortunately, MileagePlus does not accept gift cards with expiration dates as part of its exchange program, but you can work around this by first purchasing a gift card that MileagePlus accepts.
    • MileagePlus accepts gift cards from many popular retailers:
      • Target
      • Walmart
      • Starbucks
      • Best Buy
      • And many more!
