Default Gift Card question

I used a gift card for an order but now the amount of the gift card is listed as "balance hold". Has anybody else ever had this happen? What does it mean?

what gift card is it? sounds like a pending transaction but it also depends on what you "ordered"

It is a $50 Amazon gift card that I tried to order some books with. The books are quite common so I don't think they would be out of stock but my entire gift card balance says 'balance hold'. It has been like that for weeks now

I had this happen once when I bought a amazon gift card from someone else turns out the payment failed so the card was no good so balance hold means the gift card is no good
