Ever seen an entrepreneurial end-run?
Earlier this month, consumers got a reality check about the risks of gift cards. It happened after Sharper Image filed for bankruptcy and temporarily suspended acceptance of the cards. That set off a plastic panic among consumers who realized that the $26.3 billion spent on cards during the holidays wasn’t necessarily the safest bet.
But gift cards already have plenty of drawbacks from fees to expiration dates, which help pad retailers’ bottom lines. A backlash has been brewing: Massachusetts recently passed a law to cut back some fees. And certain parts of Canada are moving to get rid of expiration dates.
In the U.S., an upstart company called Leverage Inc., which enables consumers to buy, sell and swap cards online as well as track their balances and earn interest, is attempting an entrepreneurial end-run. The company recently launched a bankruptcy insurance policy that keeps cards from becoming worthless when retailers are in trouble. The site will allow customers holding gift cards purchased via leveragecard.com from merchants filing for Chapter 11 bankruptcy protection to transfer the remaining, unredeemable balances to gift cards from other retailers participating with the site the site.
