CardKoala is an independent price comparison site for discounted gift cards. We track 679 brands across 7 marketplaces, record the best discount available every hour, and keep up to twelve months of that history for every brand. We started recording on September 20, 2026.
Why the history matters
A single discount figure is almost meaningless on its own. Ten percent off a brand that routinely hits eighteen is a bad day to buy; four percent off a brand that has never beaten five is a good one. That is why we keep price history, and why a brand's page says whether today's price is better or worse than usual once it has two weeks of it.
We do not sell gift cards
We hold no inventory and process no payments. Every purchase happens on the marketplace's own site, under its own terms and its own buyer guarantee. If something goes wrong with a card, you claim through the marketplace that sold it.

How we make money
Some marketplaces pay us a commission when a visitor buys after clicking through from this site. That costs you nothing and never changes the ranking - offers are always sorted by discount. See our full affiliate disclosure.
