Just had an issue with a $0 balance card, and they replaced it IN MINUTES! I can be out shopping and get my gift card order fulfilled IN MINUTES! I'm saving and I'm protected so I'm 5 star pleased.

Cardcookie always exceeds all of my expectations. Great people! Always get great deals there. With inflation running high, it makes sense to save.

Scam
August 12, 2019

I believe this is a scam, I wish I would have seen the other reviews first. They got my info and then said they couldn't move forward.

Word of advice
February 21, 2021

This is a really good site. I've used them now for probably around $1000 in gift card purchases over the last six months or so. Hidden gem of the gift card market.
In response to some of the critical / negative reviews and to help people that may be on the fence trying to decide, I will both tell you in advance and give the reasons why the site has the strict requirements (as a buyer) that they do.
If they ask for a copy of your drivers license: Its to verify who you are and match against what you've entered. This is not a site you can enter someone else's information (buy a card for your wife, for example) on, sorry.
If they ask for a utility bill: Its to verify your billing address that your credit card returns with when they tried to process your transaction.
Note that they don't keep either of these on file and they destroy them once you've submitted them by email; I confirmed before I sent mine in. Also, they are professional and nice, so if you have a some kind of unique situation (you are trying to pay with a monkey, I don't know) you can always email their support, which is one of the best and fastest I've seen in email and they'll get back to you. I had a "unique" situation myself, and we were able to work it out.
Once you've been fully verified and the security "kinks" are worked out, you won't get bugged again unless you change your card or information (email, billing address, etc). Its actually super easy after that, like too easy, one click ordering too easy (no buyers remorse allowed haha).
I've had one or two gift cards that were in some way invalid or someone had sold them still linked to another account, and sending a screenshot of the error and the card information and I had a new one quickly sent to me within about 8 hours. Beautiful! I saved 10% off my target purchase on a vacuum that had no discounts anywhere.
Overall - their security protocols are very strict compared to most sites; and they will make many people question why (we're not used to it as consumers / savvy online shoppers) ((its made worse because as security protocols, they can only give you minimal information about what they are requesting and why, otherwise someone would figure out a way around them)). So good job reading the reviews first, you're already doing more homework than most. Try them out, you'll be glad you did. (I am!)

Their verification process is draconian - nobody wants fraud but asking people to send a copy of their passport or state issued ID for purchasing gift cards is ridiculous. With all the data breaches you are just asking for your data to be stolen and who the heck knows what they do with your data, how many servers it will be stored on and for how long. I would recommend using another service.
Follow up – despite asking for my order to be canceled they processed my order anyway meaning they didn't respect my written request to have my order canceled.
And just for the record it does look like CardCookie took the time to read and respond to my email request about canceling my order - then despite my request they processed my order 2 hours later anyway.
If you cant trust a company to respect your wishes how can you ever trust them with your data. – Avoid CardCookie like it's the plague.
My credit card company is now involved. As I asked card cookie to cancel my order – as I was able to get my gift cards from another vendor already with much less hassle and no crazy verification requirements. Now i have to understand why card cookie failed to respect my request to cancel my order and also trust them (if thats possible at this point) to purge the data they collected and give me a refund. Next need to contact "Stripe" their payment processing company and do the same. Like I said best to avoid this place - save yourself a lot of hassle.
Now I got to reach out to Stripe and ask them to purge all my data –im sure this is going to take lot of work on my end sadly – again save yourself a lot of hassle and dont use CardCookie.
Hopefully you dont make the same mistake and do business with this company, if you do might also want to hang on to these as you might need them: *******@stripe.com, *******@stripe.com; *******@stripe.com
I reached out to Stripe to exercise all my rights under the CCPA (have them purge my data). I also filed a dispute with my credit card company as well as requested new cards be issued.
