Could you build this?

No A closed-loop or multi-brand physical/virtual gift card network requires extensive commercial merchant partnerships, payment rail agreements, and card issuer integrations.

What it would actually take: This requires partnering with a licensed card issuing network (e.g., Marqeta, Galileo, or InComm) and securing formal merchant acceptance agreements or BIN sponsorships across independent restaurants, specialty grocers, and meal-kit services. The infrastructure involves real-time transaction authorization routing, merchant settlement ledgers, PCI-DSS Level 1 compliance, and state gift card breakage/escheatment legal compliance.
