So I have a significant amount of Gamestop credit ($175 to be exact), and in February, that credit will be about a year old. I'm really not looking to purchase anything through Gamestop in the next few months, but I'm worried that the credit might expire. I know that gift cards usually expires after a year of purchase, but then again, the gamestop card isn't a gift card, and it's more like a membership card. Anyone have any experience keeping a high balance on your gamestop card after a significant amount of time?

All gamestop cards(gift cards, edge cards, new reward cards) never expire. Ive had people from 5 years ago bring in old cards and they worked perfectly fine.

The card your talking about is a store credit card, which is the same thing like all of our cards, they all work the same, no fee to buying them and they dont expire / depreciate in value

Don't quote me on this, but I thought I remembered the guy at GameStop telling me they DO expire... not the gift cards, but these do. I think. Could be totally wrong.

Nah dont listen to them. I work at gamestop and weve went through the policy several times. None of our cards expire besides the Edge card only if you have a game informer subscription. The credit on the card doesnt expire, but the subscription sticker does.

Cool, I have an Edge card, so the credits on that card doesn't expire? Thanks!

Now all I have to figure out is if I want to buy a Kinect for my gf and when friends come over to drink or if I want to preorder games like Portal 2 and Bulletstorm.

Thanks for the clarification! Either the employee was wrong or phrased it poorly (or I just completely misunderstood).

      I always thought the moon gets a lot of impact because there’s no atmosphere, so surely building a moon base is only going to end in disaster?

      Microsoft is bringing a much-needed Recap app to Teams, here is a first look by Usama Jawad Microsoft Teams is heavily used in work and school environments, and perhaps one of its core but extremely useful features is the ability to record meetings. In past years, Microsoft has further improved upon this functionality by integrating AI, but you do need a Microsoft 365 Copilot license to leverage most, if not all, all of those capabilities. Now, the Redmond tech firm is making another significant enhancement in the area of Teams meeting recordings. Up until now, if you wanted to access Teams recordings, you had to arduously locate the meeting invite and navigate to the dedicated tab, or go to the cloud storage location such as a SharePoint site. This was a rather overwhelming activity, especially if you don't remember the name of the meeting or the meeting occurred quite a while ago. Microsoft is now attempting to solve this problem through a dedicated Recap app that consolidates all your recordings. This centralized experience will allow users to find all recordings from the past 30 days and also offer access to other related services such as transcripts and AI-powered summaries. Customers will have the option to search for recordings, filter them, and review multiple meetings by generating AI-powered podcast-style recaps. The Recap app will list all available recordings in both thumbnail and list views. The former is shown below: And here is how Teams users with a Microsoft 365 Copilot license can select multiple recordings to generate a podcast-style audio recap: Microsoft has emphasized that the Recap app is pre-installed in Teams but it will not be pinned by default. Users will able to navigate to the Teams app store from the left rail, and pin it from the apps section. It will be enabled by default for all users once it becomes available. It's worth noting that while Teams recordings and transcripts can be accessed by all users governed by existing permissions, AI-powered features like intelligent summaries, audio recaps, and video recaps will require a Microsoft 365 Copilot license. The Recap app will be generally available to Teams users on Windows, Mac, and the web by the end of next month, with mobile support coming soon.
