I’m not entirely certain that it was directly related however, these “new” style gift cards you describe weren’t always the norm and seemed to become more prominent after World of Warcraft was it’s most popular and the “old” style cards (ones that were active without purchase) were used for game time and often swiped as they were not secured in most retail stores.
