Rating
What we like:
- No expiration dates or post-sale fees allowed Gift cards are redeemable for cash if value is $4.99 or less
- Montana offers a consumer-centric gift card law webpage
- Montana has legally defined the notion of a gift card
- Montana has legally specified whether or not gift cards escheat to the state
What could be better:
- After 3 years from purchase date, the value will escheat to the state on December 31st
