Do gift cards purchased from USPS ever expire?

Gift cards purchased from USPS do not have an expiration date, which aligns with answer choice B. This means that once a gift card is purchased, the card remains valid indefinitely, allowing recipients to use it whenever they choose without the pressure of a time limit.

In many cases, this policy is in line with consumer protection laws that mandate that gift cards should not expire in order to protect the rights of consumers. It provides assurance to both buyers and recipients that they can use the card at their convenience.

Other options suggest specific time frames for expiration, which does not apply to USPS gift cards. The information indicating that cards would expire within a year, need activation to avoid expiration, or only expire after five years is incorrect in the context of USPS policy. This clarity reinforces the importance of knowing the validity of gifts, particularly in a customer service setting like that of a post office.
