Kinda sucks for me, as I've almost exclusively used gift cards for the last few years. I get a bonus tax-free credit card by my employer, which I can only use at retail stores. So those were a great way for me to use that card to buy games. It was also a good option for people who wanted to avoid payment providers like Visa/Mastercard etc. Oh well.

My family likes to act like doing anything outside of their usual routine will kill them. If they can't buy it while picking up frozen dinners, I won't be getting it.
