Step 5. Indicate the amount of money you’d like to transfer from your gift card registry fund and select ‘Request Now.’

Pro-Tip: Keep in mind, that some businesses have limits on the amount of money you can request transferred via gift card. If that’s the case, and you’d still like to put all funds towards one merchant, you’ll simply need to request multiple gift cards until you use all of your gift card registry funds.
