How to Sell Mastercard Gift Cards – Get Cash for Prepaid Cards
Mastercard Gift Cards → Cash
Mastercard prepaid gift cards have relatively low resale value — up to 46% on HighCardRate. Here is what to know before you sell.
Mastercard Rates
| Card Value | Rate | Your Payout |
|---|---|---|
| $50 | 46% | $23.00 |
| $100 | 46% | $46.00 |
| $200 | 46% | $92.00 |
Why Prepaid Card Rates Are Low
- Prepaid cards are essentially cash equivalents — buyers expect steep discounts
- Purchase fees ($4-$7) eat into effective value
- Higher fraud risk compared to store-specific cards
- Verification varies by issuer — more complex process
- Some cards have monthly fees after 12 months of inactivity
Before You Sell: Check for Fees
Many Mastercard gift cards charge monthly maintenance fees after 12 months. Check your card terms and sell before those kick in.
How to Sell
- Check balance at URL on back of card
- Go to HighCardRate.com, pick Mastercard Gift Card
- Enter remaining balance
- Choose payment method
- Submit card for verification
- Receive payment
Alternative: Use Instead of Sell
For prepaid cards with low resale rates, using them for everyday purchases (groceries, gas, bills) gets you full face value. A $100 card is worth $100 at the store — or $46 if you sell it. Sometimes holding onto it makes more sense.
