The vendors that appear when you are searching to buy a gift card for someone ARE NOT ASSOCIATED with GiftRocket. I purchased a $50 gift card for my family in another state for Christmas and when they go to "redeem" the gift card (that you were charged $4.50 for) they have to give their personal bank information or credit card. Who would do this?
When I e mailed customer service about them using Pay Pal to transfer the funds they said "no" cannot be done. When I asked for a refund - absolute crickets... no response at all. SCAMMMMM ALLLEERRTTT!

Worked out great!
November 23, 2020

The recipient of my GiftRocket reached out to let me know it was easy to understand and retrieve. He thanked me for introducing him to GiftRocket. Who knew?

One of my friends send me an E-gift card through Gift Rocket! I was given the option of putting it in my bank account or receive it in gift cards! The process was super fast and amazing!

Perfectly legit! I received a giftrocket from my new employer, claimed it, and it was deposited in my PayPal account within just a few hours. Love it!

Great idea!
January 12, 2019

I received a gift and had several options. I liked that very much! Being able to choose my gift was very nice. I didn't feel like I was stuck with something that I would not use or would give away.

I used GiftRocket for the first time a little more than a week ago, and again yesterday. The recipients of the gift certificates received them quickly. I will use GiftRocket again.

Flexible gift
November 7, 2022

We received this as a gift and it was easy to use. We could pick a gift card that was already listed on the site or a lump some deposit. We enjoyed being able to choose where to use our gift.

Couldn't be happier w the experience. Found a great local restaurant to support and gift and the flexibility of the gift card is great for recipient, should they want to go a different route.

Amazing Gift

It was such a easy website to use and so quick in sending and receiving. Even though you recommend a place to spend the money they have freedom to use it anywhere. WIN WIN - Thank you

Inept service

Ordered a gift certificate for a friend and his wife to go to dinner at a restaurant in NYC. A straightforward transaction never occurred due to their ignorance. Never use them.

Fast & Easy to use!
October 26, 2020

Would recommend this to friends. Lots of options for ways to use the money (restaurants, stores, etc) and easy to use. A great way to give a versatile gift to family or friends.

This advertises like it offers gift cards from third-party vendors, and then charges you a fee to take to take your money and not give you the third-party gift card you specifically sought to obtain.
