Ikea where I live (Poland) does that. You have to spend at least 0,01 PLN yourself, even if it means not using the entire amount of the gift card that was available
That's crazy. That sounds like it should not be legal.
Why not just require they spend $200 to use a gift card? That way the store either keeps the $50 gift card in cash on the books, or they make $250 in sales.

Kinda sounds like they require a link to your finances, so you can't do anonymous online purchases.
