I've used CardCash twice, once for physical cards and once for printable. Both times I got the cards I wanted at a good price. I will shop here again.
As the title says, your site has some good prices but the guarantee is not very good. I buy LOTS of gift cards, literally $40,000 worth in the last couple of years from sites like Cardpool, Raise, etc. and their guarantee is 1 year. Sometimes I buy a card and go months and months without using it so their guarantee is important to me. I'll likely buy more from you, but only ones I'll like use up quickly.
Ron, Thanks for your positive review. We are able to offer superior pricing because of our guarantee, but I completely understand your concern. Thanks for shopping with us!
Two instances where I bought e-cards that didn't work. Got refunds but it was very disappointing. Had I bought these as gifts, it would have been embarrassing as well.
Viviane, I'm sorry about your experience! I hope your future purchases will go smoothly.
I'm getting invalid cards more often lately and then I have to wait five days for a refund. Feels like buyers are punished for shade sellers.
Oh no Lynda! We wouldn't want you to feel punished! Please email us at [email protected] for a speedy refund.
I bought a $50 Dunkin Donuts gift card on this site. With about $33 left on the card, I was told at Dunkin that my card had been canceled. When I filed a complaint to CardCash the same day, they told me they couldn't do anything because I had reported it outside of the 45 day protection period. Absolutely terrible and a waste of money. Don't use this site.

KEEPS CANCELLING MY ORDERS SAYING THAT IT IS FLAGGED FPR FRAUD- I GUESS THEY ARE NOT LOOKING FOR BUSINESS.
Simon, we use an outside company for our fraud prevention. Please email [email protected] so we can assist you.
This is the BEST website to buy discounted gift cards. I use it regularly because they offer the largest discounts and they are quick in sending the gift cards (I mostly order the e-gift certificates). Absolutely the BEST! Thank you!
Review available cards. Order physical cards. Get ordered cards. Easy. Always get what I order, always fast, always correct. Love it.
TJ, Thanks for your love! We appreciate your review.
I have had a great expierence with card cash. One of my 25.00 cards ended up with only. 87 on it but they are correcting this for me. Thanks and I enjoy saving money.
Pat, Thanks for the review. I'm glad your refund went smoothly!
Ordered a chick-fil-a card that arrived with a $0 balance and received a refund when i asked for replacement. This is the 3rd time this has happened to me so i will no longer do business on this site. Caveat Emptor!
Walter, That is terrible! If there is anything we can do to make this better please email [email protected]. Hope your future experiences will be a home run!
CardCash had the gift cards I was looking for, with many choices, and right dollar amounts. The site was easy to negotiate and I found what I was looking for quickly.
Frances, Thanks for the review!
Whenever I plan to go to a National Chain Restaurant...
I buy a gift card that can be e-mailed to me within minutes. I save ~10% each time I do this.
Ken, Awesome idea! Thanks for sharing.
I like the idea of the site and made a substantial order which was cancelled for some reason. It leads me to question if this is a legitimate business. I suspect because I was traveling overseas at the time of order it could have been flagged, but my payment info was all in order.
Bryan, You are right! We do not allow overseas orders. Please attempt your order again once your back in the US.
I purchased 3 electronic gift cards recently. Each worked flawlessly. I made sure that I used them within the first 45 days in order to ensure that my warranty would be in place IF I needed it. I highly recommend this site!
Thanks for the review!
I recently purchased an online card for Steak n Shake for the amount of $50.00. The card was closed when I received it with a balance of zero. Customer service is giving a refund, in TEN days. Disappointing.
Alicia, I'm sorry about your experience. Please email [email protected] for any additional assistance.
I have previously used the cards and they worked very well with no problem, I have not yet used the new card. I recommend this to other people
Mariam, Thank you!
Smooth as silk, card came quick and the balance was as stated, worked easily at every McDonald I went to
Mike, Glad to hear!
The transaction was flagged as fraudulent and my gift card was denied withch is an insult as it is but to make it worse they still charged my credit card. The charge is not pending like they claim it it. My bank release the money and the charge posted. It has been over a week now and I don't have my gift card or my money.
Haydee, I'm terribly sorry about that! It should fall off very soon, but if it doesn't please email [email protected] so we can take a closer look.
I purchased an Old Navy egift card on CardCash to order some sweaters on sale. CardCash sent me the ecard within minutes so I was able to stack the CardCash discount with the savings at Old Navy online --- awesome deal!
D, You sound like a real smart shopper!
Great service - received the card as promised in good time - will definitely use again and recommend.
Debra, Thanks for the love!
Answer: Thanks for bringing up the CardCash BBB rating, we appreciate the opportunity to explain why we have this rating. A few months ago we got into a dispute with a seller who defrauded us. We decided to take this matter to court rather than simply resolve the complaint that seller filed with the BBB. As this complaint remains open while the case is adjudicated, the BBB has downgraded our rating. Once this matter is resolved we expect our rating to more accurately reflect our commitment to excellent customer service and business practices.
Answer: Negative comments because they deserve them. They have the best deals because they have the most scammers selling them cards. That's why they only have a 45 guarantee. The majority of their cards will be zerod out by the 45 days or right after. Then, you are screwed. They WON'T refund your money after that.
Answer: Yes, my brother had a bad transaction with Cardcash. He put a hold through PayPal and Cardcash had to respond and then quickly resolved the problem. Cardcash is the only gift card company that I have dealt with constantly sells bad cards. I know only use giftcardrescue, cardpool, or monster giftcard. Never had a problem with them.
Answer: We have a 45 day guarantee for such occurrences. Please reach out to our claims department so we can assist you. Thanks!
Answer: Of course! You are covered by our 45 day guarantee. Please email [email protected] so we can resolve it immediately. Have a wonderful day!
Answer: They don't. Don't do it. They make it seem like this is a better, faster option but they've taken my $150 cards for over a week now and have not responded or provided me the MasterCard info. Please stay away and report to BBB as this is a common practice of theirs.
