(a) As used in this title, "gift certificate" includes
gift cards, but does not include any gift card usable with multiple
sellers of goods or services, provided the expiration date, if any,
is printed on the card.  This exemption does not apply to a gift card
usable only with affiliated sellers of goods or services.
   (b) Nothing in this title prohibits those fees or practices
expressly permitted by Section 17538.9 of the Business and
Professions Code with respect to a prepaid calling card, as defined
in that section, that is issued solely to provide an access number
and authorization code for prepaid calling services.
