Tucked
Read full descriptionHide full description
Tucked is a private wallet for gift cards. If you're like most people, you've got a stack of unused gift cards in a drawer, a shoebox, or the back of a wallet โ and no idea what's left on any of them. Tucked fixes that. TRACK BALANCES Add every store card you've got with its balance, card number, and PIN. When you use some, tap to update. Your total balance across every card is always visible at the top of the home screen. CHECKOUT-READY BARCODES Every card can show its barcode full-screen at the register. Bright, big, and ready for the scanner. REMINDERS NEAR THE STORE Tucked can ping you when you're near a store where you have an unused card. Walking past a store with $38 on an old gift card? You'll know. Nearby-store lookup uses OpenStreetMap. Fully opt-in; location can be turned off anytime. ENCRYPTED ON YOUR DEVICE Card numbers, PINs, and barcodes are encrypted in the iOS Keychain. Store names and balances live in on-device storage. There is no account, no sign-in, and no cloud sync โ your gift cards are yours, not ours. ABOUT TUCKED Tucked contains no advertising and no third-party tracking. Anonymous usage analytics are collected via PostHog for feature improvement, and anonymous crash reports via Sentry โ no user identifier, no PII, no card data. Full disclosure inside the app under Settings โ Privacy Policy. Stop leaving money in a drawer.
