This thread is dedicated for axis bank prepaid gift card-
Starting from FAQ- what is this card http://www.axisbank.com/personal/cards/prepaid-...
SO guys i bought this gift card from amazon http://www.amazon.in/Axis-Bank-Gift-Card/dp/B00... …
Shipping was quick and i received it in 2 days of order .
After receiving card i wasnt able to use it anywhere- made several calls to cc, visited ATM, axis bank branch but none helped at all..
SO wats the procedure -
1) Does it come preactivated-?
Ans- NO we have to activate it, As i said before cc is of no use we can directly mark an email to [email protected] with all card details.
Though i didnot got any reply to my mail but card was activated in 48 hours.
2) How to check balance?
Axis Bank provides you the facility of Balance Enquiry on your Smart Pay Card through ATM & Internet Banking facilities. The Axis Bank Smart Pay Card Kit contains an Internet Banking PIN, an ATM PIN. & a Telebanking PIN.
For checking Balance & Mini Statement Internet Banking
Go to the Axis Bank Home page.
Select Prepaid Cards option in Internet Login Tab options.
Enter your Prepaid card number for login ID
Enter the WEB PIN provided for login password.
You may now check the mini statement and balance on the card along with various other service options.
3) Most Imp question-
Can it be used online??
ANS- yes , it can be used on sites with VBV supported websites which i guess coves all sites.
The Axis Bank Smart Pay cards can be used for making purchases online at VBV (Verified by Visa) certified merchants’ websites.
Prepaid Card Usage:
When you visit any shopping website, choose the payment option as Debit Cards.
Enter the Prepaid Card number, Expiry Date, & Registered E-mail address as requested.
Once you submit the request you are taken to the VBV password verification page, enter the VBV password* as generated by you.
*VBV Password Generation Process:
As a first time user, you would be required to register as a VBV card user and set an online payment password for all future purposes.
Once the payment gateway takes you to “VBV Registration Page” the user would be asked to enter the ATM Pin, Expiry Date & Registered E-mail address as a first time registration process.
Once registered & you set a password, your VBV registered Password can be used for all future online transactions.
4) Does it work with payumoney?
Ans- yes i used on foodpanda, payumoney while making payment
I also made transaction on goibibo for HOTEOSS coupon offer
ANy other questions r welcome

As to why this happens even the ONE above us does not know. I had contacted Axis telebanking and as per them the card was not active and then I contacted GCi because as we all know the Axis people are actually mindless drones who do not function even when given explicit instructions, and as per GCi the card was active but due to some tech issue at Axis bank, it could not be registered for VBV.
Whatever the cause, this error disappeared as mysteriously as it had appeared and I was able to register for VBV after two to three days.To date. it remains a mystery.
I also believe its a tech issue coz tried couple of cards bought from amazon & paytm gci and which have received the card load sms.
tried using all the 3 ways as earlier stated above but all gave the same issue.
seems have to wait now. any chance u have axis prepaid cc mail id?

Axis Prepaid Cards: New User Guide
For the benefit of any dimers new to the Axis prepaid cards, I am again compiling all of my “landmark” posts here:
Checking card transactions/statement: As it stands presently, you will have to change the password on the first login. Use a password with special characters like !#$, etc. Reference: http://www.desidime.com/forums/dost-and-dimes/t...
Registration for Verified By Visa (VBV): Regardless of whether you buy this card from Paytm, Amazon, GCI, or any other site in the future, you should create an account at the Axis VBV portal and register your card before trying to do any transactions. You can add all your Axis GCs in one VBV account without having to provide personal details again and again. Although you can individually register each card at the time of the first transaction, the VBV account will also come in handy when the Axis payment gateway acts up and only allows existing VBV account users to register new cards. References: (1) http://www.desidime.com/forums/dost-and-dimes/t... (2) http://www.desidime.com/forums/dost-and-dimes/t...
Known card activation issues and what to do: Cards purchased from Amazon, which are sold directly by Axis bank, are supposed to come preactivated. But sometimes, they take upto a week to activate the cards even after delivery. Reference: http://www.desidime.com/forums/dost-and-dimes/t...
Activation of cards purchased from GCI (via Paytm) and affiliate cashback: GCI implemented a web-based activation request system in Oct. And Amazon/Paytm stopped paying affiliate commissions on the purchase of the Axis GCs. Moreover, GCI may take two weeks or even longer to activate cards as they have to rely on the broken/dysfunctional systems of Axis Bank. You should escalate the activation request via email ([email protected]) if your card doesn’t get activated within the promised timeframe of 3-4 days. Reference: http://www.desidime.com/forums/dost-and-dimes/t...
Card blocking: As mentioned in some of the above linked posts, if you try to use an Axis GC for a transaction or try logging in to the Axis prepaid portal for checking the statements and fail more than 3 times consecutively, the card will get blocked. This is not a major issue. You will simply have to wait for at least 24 hours before reattempting a transaction or login. Make sure you do not attempt another transaction or login before 24 hours have passed as it might reset the clock. Also, some users have reported that the automatic unblocking took more than 24 hours in some cases. So be patient.

Does paytm stopped selling axis bank GC?

Yes. 
Update at 11:40pm: ↓ @deepth This is hopefully a temporary situation. But it’s not looking good as it has been a few weeks already and the card has also been removed from Amazon. But GCI is still selling the card on its own website. http://www.giftcardsindia.in/products/axis-bank...
permanent or its just temporarily?

no need to register at any website, give any email id which you have. that’s just for notifying purpose for the card spent. you can give any email id. as simple as that.
