Our Verdict
The offer is pretty lackluster. After accounting for the $6.95 purchase fee and the $.49 stamp, there isn’t huge profit to be made. And there’s the hassle of mailing in the rebate. As far as I know, BBB does not accept Apple Pay so that route is out. You can try using BBB gift cards to buy the Visa gift card; some have had success with this in the past depending on the cashier/store-policy.
The biggest surprise to me about this offer is that BBB carries $200 Visa gift cards. I don’t think I’ve come across any denomination higher than $100; maybe they recently added it. It seems retailers like carrying Visa gift cards and we saw Staples.com recently add $300 Visa gift cards. Maybe they actually make money on them or else it helps prop up their revenues. In any case, if they are offering a mail-in rebate for the $200 cards, I’d assume that they carry them.
