Summary:Systems, apparatus, methods, and computer program products for gift card exchange. The gift card holder is able to exchange either the full purchased amount or a residual balance amount. In other embodiments, a gift card exchange marketplace is provided to allow gift card exchange amongst gift card holders. Thus, gift card exchange alleviates the problem of undesired gift cards (i.e., gift cards from merchants that the recipient does not prefer). Moreover, gift card exchange of residual balances eliminates the problem related to unknown residual gift card balances and keeping track and possession of multiple gift cards with minimal residual balances.
