In July of last year MetaBank released a new line of gift cards called ‘Happy’, there are different versions of this card that can be used at specific retailers. Recently MetaBank added new terms to the cards stating:
Card not usable to buy gift cards or pay prior debts
This is not actually hardcoded currently, but obviously individual cashiers could enforce these terms (as they are found on the back of cards). It’s also possible MetaBank are waiting a set period of time to use up the old cards before hardcoding this new language.
