TGI Fridays gift cards by country

TGI Fridays is an American casual dining chain that started in New York in 1965 and later spread across dozens of countries through franchising. The restaurants are recognisable by their red-and-white stripes, the bar in the middle of the room, and an American-style menu: burgers, steaks, chicken wings, pork ribs in sauce, fries, salads, sharing starters and desserts. The bar, with its cocktails and non-alcoholic mixes, is a defining part of the concept. A TGI Fridays gift card settles the bill at the chain's restaurants in the country the card was issued for, and in some countries it also covers takeaway or orders placed through the chain's own delivery service. Because restaurants in different countries operate under franchise, dishes, prices and card acceptance rules vary: a dollar-denominated card is not intended for Philippine or Malaysian venues, and vice versa.
