Anyone bought a gift card or prepaid credit card for someone on Austral?

This is what I want to do, but want a physical card sent as recipient is a young teen. I have reading reviews of gift card store com au and don't seem good. Can anyone point in the direction of someone to use that will send a card rather than digital to their email. It will be hard for me to ensure they have it if digital, plus I don't have their email address. I'm not even sure they have one, they have quite a sheltered life due to location / religion.

I have done Amazon in the past with a physical card so might have to be that again ?

🙃 title should say Australia

Can you not order one online from the shop you want it for? Or do you mean a prepaid visa type card.

It's really hard to try to order from an Australian site and it seems to change to UK automatically as soon as you go on, despite typing the .com.au address. I've managed to order on Australia Amazon before but it's just a bit boring, was hoping to get either a visa / MasterCard prepaid so can use in a clothes store or H&M voucher.

The parents are a bit whimsical financially, certainly not poor but they have spent cash I've sent over or transferred themselves. Once on a birthday cake for example. Now I know that's part of the birthday experience but I doubt very much they said relative Smelly bought you this amazing cake. Then I would hate the teen to think I didn't send them a gift. When younger I would post toys, but it's tricky now older and the postage seems to be at least £20 for a small parcel.

There are some tips about vouchers on this thread, @smellyjellyshoes:
