The card is valid for one year. 

Consumers can order CorpBank Visa Gift Cards worth a minimum of Rs. 1000 and a maximum of Rs. 5000. Since a lost gift card can be replaced, it is safer than cash. The card holder can also view all the card transactions and get a free statement from https://www.corpprepaidcards.co.in or call toll-free number 1800 425 2407 in case of queries.
