    Hi ,

    I didn't receive any infractions in past 6 months until today , What a record :D

    Today I got an infraction for selling Amazon gift cards . First of all I know selling gift cards and VCC is forbidden here . But what type of "Gift cards" is not allowed ? As it appears selling Visa and Master gift cards violates the TOS .

    But what about the Amazon gift cards ? They work same as Google Adwords and Facebook Ads coupon codes . You go and enter an special code then your account get credited . So we can call Amazon gift cards "Voucher" too . I don't think if Amazon gift cards are same as Visa or Master gift cards but one of the respected mods does :)

    So why my thread got removed and I received an infraction ? IMHO its not fairly :(

    And if trading Amazon gift cards is prohibited please search the following term in Google :
    Amazon gift card site:digitalpoint.com

    Referring to the reason for infraction,

    DP rules prohibit sales of Amazon Gift Cards.
    Check the Rules for Vouchers Section.

    Still not clear enough ,

    Does this gift card term also include Amazon gift cards ? So what if I call it Amazon voucher after this ?

    Again I have seen a lot of threads for trading Amazon gift cards ? Are all of them violating terms ?

    Amazon gift cards, Starbucks gift cards etc are not allowed. As ~~~~ said gift cards are not allowed. See sticky referenced.
