Take full control of your gift card collection with Smart Gift Wallet, the all-in-one solution for storing, organizing, and using your gift cards from over 80 of the most popular retailers in the United States. Americans lose more than $3 billion in unused gift card balances every year — forgotten in drawers, left in old emails, or simply overlooked at checkout. Smart Gift Wallet eliminates that problem entirely by keeping every card you own in one secure, easy-to-access place. STORE AND ORGANIZE YOUR CARDS Add gift cards from over 80 major brands including Walmart, Target, Amazon, Starbucks, Home Depot, Best Buy, and many more. Each card stores your card number, PIN, barcode value, and current balance. Cards are automatically grouped by brand on your home dashboard, giving you a clear, instant overview of your total wealth across every retailer. PAY DIRECTLY FROM YOUR PHONE At checkout, simply open Smart Gift Wallet, select the brand and card you want to use, and present the on-screen barcode for the cashier to scan — no physical card required. Our barcode display is compatible with standard retail scanners at store registers nationwide. LOCATION-BASED REMINDERS Never walk past a store and forget you have a gift card there. Smart Gift Wallet uses your device's location to detect when you are near a retailer where you have a balance. You will receive a notification reminding you of your available balance so you can use it before you leave. SEND GIFT CARDS TO FRIENDS AND FAMILY Sharing is easy with Smart Gift Wallet. Send any gift card directly to another person via their email address or phone number. Recipients receive a notification and can accept the card straight into their own Smart Gift Wallet account.
