    Many places do not let you pay for gift cards with a credit card, so while it would not be a cash advance, you may not have luck actually buying one.
    Check around, as not all stores that sell pre-loaded cards have this policy.

  2. No. A cash advance is essentially a loan. A gift card is preloaded, meaning you are pre paying the amount.

    It isnt a cash advance. It is a gift card. Its the same concept as if you bought a Nordstrom gift card,etc. Gift cards are not cash.

    It is not a cash advance. It is just like purchasing merchandise.

    Call the 800 number on your credit card and ask.

    No, it will be treated like any other purchase.
