How do I check my balance?
For plastic cards, enter your card ID in to this form to see the balance available. For e-Gifts, open the email you received and click the "open gift" button.
​
Can I use my card for food delivery or lodging apps?
Unfortunately, no. Food delivery and lodging apps like Doordash and AirBNB take the money directly, then payout to the local business, making it impossible for the system to know if the money is being spent in Occoquan or not.
​
How soon does my card work?
You can spend your card immediately!
​
Does the balance expire?
Gift funds expire after 5 years and are charged a monthly fee of 5% after 1 year of inactivity.
​
Who runs the program and do they profit from it?
Visit Occoquan Inc. is a local non-profit and the program coordinator of the Occoquan Gift Cards. We are run by volunteers and do not profit from this program, nor do we charge businesses to be included.
