'Tis the Season for Gift Ideas: Key's MasterCard(R) Gift Card Keeps on Giving CLEVELAND, Nov. 11 /PRNewswire/ -- 'Twas the weeks before the holidays and you start pacing through your house, scratching your head, wondering, "What gift will I give?" What gift will I give for my sitter, my stylist, my uncle, my spouse? When suddenly there arises a brainstorm -- "I'll visit my nearest KeyBank branch and purchase a Key Possibilities MasterCard(R) Gift Card!" The Key Possibilities card -- available in convenient denominations from $25 to $2,500 -- is a prepaid debit card and can be used anywhere that MasterCard debit cards are accepted -- at millions of merchants worldwide. This is a great gift-giving idea for anyone on your holiday list -- whether they're in town or far away -- and saves you from waiting in long lines at the store, or debating between the red and blue sweater, or the gold or silver earrings. The card recipient can choose whatever they would like most as they're browsing through the mall or shopping in cyberspace, and even opt for a cash advance. At any KeyBank branch you can buy as many cards as you need in any variety of denominations. The cards are activated on the spot and you pay the face value of the cards plus a small issuance fee. Unlike a gift of money, the Key Possibilities card keeps on giving and can be used as often as a customer would like until the balance is depleted or the card expires. If the card is lost or stolen, any remaining value can be refunded. The card is signed by the recipient and has a personal identification number (PIN) for those transactions requiring one, (e.g., getting cash from an ATM) and therefore is safer to carry than cash. Whether you celebrate Christmas, Hanukkah or Kwanzaa, the Key Possibilities gift card is a practical gift. Aren't you glad you thought of it?
