How do you use the visa cards you're often paid in? (UK)

I have raked up a few visa cards (in dollars) via playtestcloud and userinterviews ($2, $11, and 2x $40). I initially wanted to just deposit this into my bank account, but there doesn't seem to be an easy way to do this. So I thought I would just wait until a friend or family wants to buy something online, use the visa cards, and they pay me back in cash. I tried doing this for a microsoft store purchase (about $70), however it seems that you are unable to use multiple visa cards for any purchase. I also had to use some family's US address for entering the billing address, as UK addresses didn't work.

How do you even use the visa cards with these restrictions? If nowhere allows multiple card payments then it seems almost fated that you will be left with some money on a card that you cannot use. The $2 card seems especially stupid, barely anything worth buying online costs that little, so it is basically doomed to expire.

How would you get the money from the cards in this situation?
