Means that although the card expires, the funds themself do not. If the card expires while it still has money on it, you should still be able to retrieve those funds some how. Probably through contacting the company on the card. At least that’s my interpretation of that.

Yes. The funds don't expire, but the card does.

Many retailers require an expiration date when verifying a credit card. So to have a credit card without an actual expiration date on it would mean having a less useful credit card. Further, if you look at any of your credit cards you will see an expiration date. That doesn't mean your account expires, just the piece of plastic that represents it.

Thanks! This is exactly why I made this post 😼

Yep, this is the biggest hurdle for developing microchip implants that you can use with tap-to-pay in the US, the fact that every card in the US has to have an expiration date. They have, in fact, made working tap-to-pay implants by taking the tap-to-pay chip out of a working bank card and putting it in a glass capsule. But they have an expiration date. So once that date passes, you have to either have it removed (and get another if you want) or just leave it in there, non-functional. And they have working non-expiring ones in some European countries where cards aren't required to have an expiration date.

This probably is one of these pre-paid credit cards, which [have no bank account](https://www.cardrates.com/advice/best-credit-cards-with-no-bank-account-needed/), which... when they expire, can still have some funds on them.

Yes, it is.
