Default Merging gift cards funds

I buy IT gift cards to create and verify PayPal accounts . Minimum ammount for the card is 25€ so I have something like 22€ left for each card.

Is there a smart way to collect all funds from differnt cards in a single account so I can spend the money to buy other cards? (I hope my question is clear).

I know I can spend them somewhere else or to get Amazon vouchers but I really want to find a way to merge that funds and use them from one single card or account. Something like an online account or card that can be funded/reloaded with that.

I did try skrill card and was working fine but I realised too late that they do not allow skrill card to be funded with gift cards... lesson learned I managed to get banned from skrill.

When I use Gift Cards from Tesco (£25/£50) I upload to SKRILL and withdraw the funds back to my account I bought the gift cards with. Never had any issues.

SKRILL closed my account a few days ago. They did not tell me what the issue was (just like our friends eb & pp..) but I guess that was the reason.
I did not do much else with that card. Only used to collect gift cards funds and spent to buy other cards.
Do not think about 10s of cards... just 4 or 5 in the last 2 months.

Callidus, are you saying you can add funds to skrill with a giftcard and cash out to a bank account?

If so...what % do you lose on the balance?

Careful in doing that... you will end up with your skrill account blocked

As far as I am aware the gift cards I am using cannot be cashed out. I did try at an ATM but transaction was denied.

Can you buy more Gift Cards with the old Gift Cards? Can you use the Gift Cards to purchase Petrol, Food, Pasta, tomatoes, Onion, Dried Oregano, Garlic, 1 Kilo of ground beef?

No I cannot buy new gift card with the old one and yes I can buy all the stuff for inviting you in here to have dinner with la mia famiglia but this is not what I wanted to do... I mean buy stuff... inviting you for dinner is ok.

Can a credit card processing service be used for this purpose?

I mean pretending to sell something to myself and process the gift card?

Suggestions? Fees involved?

@ilcarletto, I have used PP actually to process cashing out many gift cards. Square, Skrill, CCNow...these services seem to flag the gift card-cashout sales

This really doesn't make much sense to me... how can you cash out 20 different gift cards linked to 20 different PayPal accounts...? ..avoiding links?

Well i guess you all got wrong the account linking.. I have been transfering money when i needed between my stealth accounts and when one of the accounts has been limited never flagged anything on the other accounts. The "LINKING" can be done only through logging in from the same device or IP, and also by using related info when you register your accounts. If you use different name address phone ip device etc you will never be linked i guarantee you that. I have been doing this for around 13 years and never had a problem.

Dont judge me by my post count and inactivity. Thank you!
