how to redeem Origin access gift card

[ Edited ]
★ Novice

I got this gift card for Christmas and followed the instructions on the back and it doesn't work. Do I have to be a Origin Access Premier member? 

I followed the instructions on the back of the card but the code is too short. and then it talks about EA wallet, I don't have and when I tired to activate it I get. 

Sorry, this code can't be redeemed. Your EA Wallet is only valid in the country of the first EA Cash Card you redeemed. You can't redeem cash cards in more than one country.I have everything set to the country that I am in and that the card was purchased. This is really annoying.

I don't know exactly the fix for this problem, but most likely it would help if you contact an EA Advisor...
