Not Good

I would give this 0 stars if I could.
This site does not offer regular gift cards. I was told to redeem the gift card I received, but it requires a VISA card unlike other gift cards. I redeemed my gift card to my VISA card, and the app said I could shop with it. However, when I went to a merchant to buy something, my card was declined even though it was not over the limit.
I tried to request a refund, but they refused, and the customer service is terrible, it’s mostly just chatbots. I do not recommend anyone use this site.

Not user friendly

I received a gift from a family member through this company, and the sheer amount of time it took to try to find a way to use it was very frustrating. And the Help links were not helpful at all. You can’t add it to a Google or Apple wallet either. You can no longer check your balance, it said it would add five dollars for first time activation and it didn’t—even though I had a gift card to a nationally recognized vendor. It doesn’t offer an option to create an account and password for easy login, and when I tried to figure out how to login to the app, it got stuck in a loop sending text verification codes and never actually allowed me to login. The app was very clunky. More of a headache than it was worth.

THIS APP IS A SCAM

i’m only giving it 5 stars to at least make it to the top, their gift card process is complicated and when you ask for a refund they don’t give it back

Warning. Pointless.

Please buy a gift card from literally anyone and anywhere else. The crackhead on the street corner is more trustworthy and straightforward than whatever the hell this product is suppose to be. Do yourself a favor and do not fight use this “gift card” company. Nothing but problems and BS.

Easy!

This makes my gift giving heart happy because it’s easy to send something last minute when I have forgotten to do something for someone’s birthday!

FAQ

What is GiftYa?

GiftYa is a mobile application that allows users to send personalized digital gift cards directly to recipients via text message. The app simplifies the gift-giving process by enabling users to choose from a wide range of merchants, select an amount, and add a personal touch with photos or videos before sending.

How do recipients use a GiftYa?

Recipients can link their received GiftYa to their credit or debit card. Once linked, the gift card amount is credited to their account as they make purchases using their linked card, effectively allowing them to spend the gift card at any business where their card is accepted.

Can I send a GiftYa to any business?

Yes, one of the key features of GiftYa is its wide acceptance. The gift cards can be used at virtually any business where you can use your credit or debit card, making them more versatile than traditional gift cards that are often limited to specific retailers.

Is GiftYa free to use?

The app itself is free to download and use. Users pay for the value of the gift card they send. While the app is free, there are in-app purchases associated with sending the gift cards themselves.

What occasions can I use GiftYa for?

GiftYa is designed for any occasion. You can send a GiftYa for birthdays, holidays, graduations, job interviews, or even just to let someone know you're thinking of them. The ability to send amounts as low as $5 makes it suitable for small gestures as well as larger gifts.
