Introduction

The Mall Gift Card is available in euro (€) only. The Card is not a credit card, or a charge card, nor is it a debit card linked to a current account. It is a prepaid card which means that money must be loaded onto the Card at the time of purchase. The Card is issued by The Mall of Cyprus (MC) Plc subject to these terms and conditions.

Certain limits apply to the Card. A maximum value of €500 may be loaded onto the Card at the time of purchase, and the minimum load value is €20. Only full €1 amounts (or multiples thereof) may be loaded onto the Card. Additional amounts may not be loaded onto the Card at any time. Interest will not be payable in respect of Card balances.

You should look after the Card as we do not hold your personal details and we cannot link the Card to you.

The Card is available at the Information Desk of Mall of Cyprus, and payment for it is done only via debit or credit card.
