A method and system for transferring gift points to a recipient. An exchange computer redeems reward points designated by a user from a user reward point account stored on an associated reward server computer. The exchange computer requests a stored value issuer computer to fund a stored value account on behalf of the recipient in an amount equal to the gift points, the stored value account identified by a stored value account number. The exchange computer generates a bar code symbol encoded with a designation of the gift points and the stored value account number. The exchange computer sends to the recipient an online link to the bar code so that the recipient operating a computing device can use the online link to retrieve the bar code from the exchange computer. |
