CardCookie

CardCookie is an online marketplace that sells gift cards for less than they are worth. It offers a 100-day guarantee, which is what protects you if a card's balance turns out to be wrong. Today it has discounted cards for 17 stores, and we check its prices every hour. We don't handle orders, so we can't vouch for its customer service. What we can say is that a written guarantee is the thing to look for in any gift card seller, and that spending a card or loading it into your account the day it arrives takes away most of the risk.

Contact CardCookie, not the store on the card: the 100-day guarantee is CardCookie's. Check the balance as soon as the card arrives, and keep your order email until the card is spent.

Sometimes. Right now it has the lowest price for 12 of the 534 stores that any seller we check has in stock (2%). The cheapest seller changes from store to store and from day to day, so look the store up here before you buy.

It says its cards are delivered instantly.

We read the prices CardCookie shows on its own website, every hour. We don't sell gift cards and never see your order: when you click through, you buy from CardCookie directly. We may earn a commission when you do, and it never changes the order sellers are listed in.
