An interactive electronic greeting card with pop-up feature includes a pocket or cavity which houses various electronic and mechanical components and a pop-up element. In a first position, the pop-up element is substantially contained within the greeting card pocket or cavity. When the push button is depressed, the pop-up element is ejected or pops up out of the greeting card pocket or cavity, revealing a greeting or other printed indicia, a mobile object or a gift card attached thereto. The push button also initiates playback of a pre-loaded digital audio file, which may be a spoken message, a sound, a song, music or other such audio recording.

An apparatus for mailing a gift card contains a first card and a first removable card. The gift card is represented by the first removable card and is positioned within a first receiving slot. The first receiving slot is positioned across a first flap of the first card and traverses through the first flap. More specifically, the first removable card is perimetrically attached to the first flap such that the user can conveniently remove the gift card when necessary. The first card is provided with a second flap which allows the user to print mailing information and other product related details. If multiple gift cards are to be provided a second removable card can also be included with the apparatus. Similar, to the first removable card, the second removable card will also be perimetrically attached to the first flap.

Systems and methods for using an information wallet system to deliver a gift and receive, redeem, or re-gift the gift are disclosed. The information wallet system's storage is securely maintained by a financial institution computing system (i.e. a bank) and receives and holds purchase transaction information. Purchase information transaction may be received from a user computing device or an entity computing system, such as a merchant computing system. In one embodiment, a user may purchase a gift through an online website or at a brick and mortar location and direct the gift to be deposited into the information wallet storage of a recipient. A recipient may then continue to hold the gift, redeem the gift, or re-gift the gift to another party.

Packaging comprising: (a) a prepaid card at least partially enclosed within the packaging, the prepaid card including a barcode at least partially visible through a cutout in the packaging; and (b) a reference barcode located on the packaging, wherein the reference barcode is compared to the barcode of the prepaid card to ensure the reference barcode has the same or similar design to that of the barcode of the prepaid card to identify counterfeit or tampered with packaging.

A stored value card and carrier system comprising a carrier and a stored value card. The carrier including first and second panels.

The chamber may be sealed on each of the four sides such that egress to an interior of the chamber is substantially prevented. The stored value card may have activation indicia displayed thereon. The stored value card may have activation indicia displayed thereon. The stored value card may be situated within the chamber and adhered to at least one inner surface of the chamber. Accessing of the activation indicia of the stored value card may necessarily correspond with destruction of at least one of the first and second panels.

Card assemblies for concealing and protecting activation indicia on the card assembly. Two panels, either discrete or foldable, form the card itself, such as a CR80 card or an M6 card assembly, with or without a CR80 snap-off portion. Activation indicia, such as a barcode, can be printed or otherwise applied to an exterior portion of the card assembly, or printed or otherwise applied to an interior of the assembly which is accessed by a tamper evident pull tab. Redemption indicia, such as an alpha-numeric code, can be applied to an interior surface of the card, which is accessed by a tamper evident pull tab or other tab.
