GIFTS: You can purchase a Google Play eGift cards in $1 increments from $10 to $200 and then print out the eGift page with its code, fold it up, put it in a card, and mail it to a student away at school or to a child, grandchild, niece, nephew, etc. for birthdays, holidays, or just an I Was Thinking of You kind of day. I guarantee you they’ll appreciate it even if they have an iPhone or iPad.

You are also given the option to email the Google Play eCard to the lucky recipient. Just click on the link that says Send As a Gift by Email and follow the instructions.

NOTE: It’s worth mentioning that PayPal can be selected as a Google Play payment method. Which means you can load a registered Gene Grawe Fund prepaid Visa gift card as a funding source in the Wallet of your PayPal account. Then when you select PayPal as your Google Play payment method, you’ll be given the opportunity to choose the GGF Visa you just loaded.
