Stupid Question - Starbucks Japan

[UnicornHunter]

Really dumb question. I have a friend in the Tokyo area that I have to send a gift to. They requested a Starbucks gift card. I'm not in the country and my search revealed that it must be purchased in the country in question.

I have a few friends who are local who can help if needed, but I want to clarify, do they actually sell Starbucks gift cards in Japan? It wasn't clear on any of the Starbucks websites I could find.

Thanks...

They do. They are basically cards you can add money to and give as a gift. The card can be refilled by the user - some of the cards designs they put out, sell out pretty quickly. But they always have the generic cards available at each shop.

Great! Thanks. I'll have my friend pick one up for me.
