Tried to visit the site and found it was still available for me, meaning that the problem was on your side. But maybe because of the internet speed, 3 minutes have passed and I still cannot download their website  Roll Eyes Or it could be an error on their part, but it looks different from your description. I can't be sure because the internet service provider recently announced that their international fiber optic cable was in trouble

All I'm getting are some spinning blue circles.
As for eGifter, it's working fine on my end but apparently, they're only selling U.S GCs.
Just checked and it appears they were in the middle of maintenance [it loads normally now].

Ahhhh, I realized that you need to buy a playstation gift card, I can provide it for you  Wink
I appreciate it but I will be looking [probably next week] at Xbox GCs [not PS GCs] Cheesy

Codes can be a lottery. I've seen people saying some worked and some didn't when they were in other countries.
Indeed and that's my main concern...

If you want a code to buy a whole machine then I wouldn't risk it.

Someone may have a suggestion that's not listed here. Or you could find a shipping forwarder or someone here to buy and send for you.
No, not for the whole console. I'll be using it for purchasing games and for the console, I can buy it from an unofficial store [unfortunately, due to sanctions we've got no official stores for any kind of American brand].

I bought Xbox GCs (EUR) from Bitrefill and gave them to friends who lives in North africa before, and they never had any issues redeeming them (Done that multiple times). All they needed to do was to change their region to 'France' using either the console or the app.
Thank you, that's a relief. Will probably do the same when I get my hands on my Xbox and Xbox GCs...
- Will probably post an update by next week or so.

Thanks to all of you for responding fast, I appreciate it Smiley

Due to Coronavirus, I've been staying at home for more than a month already [will probably be staying for another month or so] and wanted to buy myself an Xbox [I'm a PC person] so I can play with my loved ones while hanging out in the living room and due to my current location, the only way for purchasing gift cards is this thread [with the help of crypto payments]. I noticed there is a warning in Bitrefill that says "gift code may only work in" certain countries and was wondering if anyone has tried using Bitrefill for purchasing Xbox codes from another country/region and successfully redeeming it [coinsbee has different regions as well but not from where I am and some of the providers from the list have no warning about regions locks]?

  • I also read about a workaround [changing location and trying again on xbox] but based on comments, it didn't work for everyone.

@o_e_l_e_o

I can vouch for Coinsbee. I'm using it regularly to buy different cards, since the site has been launched, and well, no problem, It works very well as advertised. Too bad I missed the black Friday they had a 10% discount :/
Half of my furniture has been paid with gift cards from Coinsbee. (All I need now is the heating (now that I have electricity)  Cheesy Angry)

And nope, it's only VCCs.


@shield132
You don't need to provide your debit card details to Sephora if you're paying with a gift card, you need to give your personal information (if you want to receive the item of course)


@OmegaStarScream
Do you know something about the KYC with Bitrefill? We were talking about it in the French forum and a member showed us that the site has a KYC for amounts above $1500.
However, we tried to buy a gift card from lastminutes.com for a value of $4000 and nothing was specified about it. So there is a KYC or not?


We are really happy to read that! Perhaps you can also pay your heating by using coinsbee.com. ;-)

I wanted to reply it works everywhere VISA is accepted bro. Unless Visa is not working in your country because it's banned or whatever you won't have any problem. But I found this message, which makes me doubt now

I don't hablamos espagnol muy bien so not sure to have understood correctly

Apparently, we are not allowed to use their services, I suppose that is due to the OFAC sanctions, although it seems very strange to me since "it is supposed" that the sanctions are for members of the regime of MADURO  and his government.

Although large financial institutions in the United States are allowed to do some operations with major public institutions in Venezuela, until 2020. As specified in the following license.

A few days ago I was looking for a VCCs service and it seems Coinsbee fulfills all my requirements, but I have one question left.
Do you know if these VCCs works from Venezuela?  I mean can I give my Venezuela address?

I haven't noticed if Venezuela is listed there or not but I know that there is no kind of verification, only your email will be used later to send you a link to access your account.

You can ask Coinsbee just to be on the safe side: https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/coinsbeecom-buy-gift-cards-with-about-50-crypto-currencies-5182163

I didn't know they had a topic in the forum, I asked them already, I will wait for their answer, although that escapes their hands because it seems Prepaiddigitalsolutions is the one who has the final decision.





It should work. If the shop where u use the visa code deliver to Venezuela. But we didn't have a customer from Venezuela before.
We recommend you to do a "test" with a small amount.

The platfrom itself is reputable but since you're trading with other individuals, you could come across carders/scammers and because of that, I rather not list it here.

I saw a guy accusing that paxful was not clean. He was denied payment of 0.4 BTC and when he requested support he was denied. The topic is located here
I'm not sure what he said is true, because he has no evidence, but with the information you give, it is not secure, there is always a risk of losing money anytime.

after that experience, i started using bitrefill for amazon.com gift cards. they are unfortunately the most expensive option by far. they charge an extra 2% on everything. they do have the added bonus of processing with zero confirmations (make sure not to use RBF though!) if you pay with 6+ sat/byte fee rate, so i always use them when i'm in a hurry. however, i'm getting sick of being overcharged every time so i might go back to the bitpay wallet.

I've noticed this too after using them. As far as I know they are the one and only gift card provider that sticks a premium on top though I guess almost all others use Bitpay's exchange rate. It kind of negates the point. If you have a decent exchange you may as well use that as it'll almost certainly be cheaper than 2%.

For another 0.5% I can use a Coinbase debit card which leaves me with money to spend elsewhere should I wish it. I'd choose that instead.

There are different strategies, we decided to compete based on service and global availability. However, we are constantly trying to get new sources and setting the lowest prices posible.

People that do not care to leak personal data, shopping with a debit card or buying Gift Cards from poor track record companies, are not our typical users.

Hello, you can check the daily limits in detail here https://www.bitrefill.com/terms

TLDR, you have a daily limit for Gift Cards of 2500 USD if you don't have an account with us, or 5000 USD if you do. Single orders cannot exceed 2000 USD. Limits can be rised upon customer verification.

I have some suggestions here, but I'm not sure it's all safe, actually, for me, I just read to knowing
1. Bidali: accept lots of cryptocurrencies
2. InstaGift: need to register
3. Bitcoin Gift Cards: accept BTC
4. Fold App: you can get a cup of coffee at Starbucks through it, I do not have information about it.

I do not really use it, but I have a few friends who used to, and they said it was good. Also, I've seen it on social media, I don't remember it well, it seems I've seen it on Medium. I will find the link to the article on Medium and will update later  Cheesy

update
This is the link to introduce WeGift on Medium. I think it's safe, the article mentioned Coinbase cooperating with them. It also refers to a few other similar sites

A large number of bitcoin transactions are made thanks to the purchase of gift cards. They allow you to buy in most large stores and small local businesses both online and offline. Some services offer gift cards of various denominations — they can also be purchased for bitcoins. Among the most famous: eGifter, Gyft, Purse.io, Cryfter, Instagift, Yes to Bitcoins and the Fold App.

Interesting. I've never heard of this site before. Do they sell any physical cards or top up vouchers for physical cards, or is it only virtual cards? Can anyone vouch for Coinsbee?

I can vouch for them, I've used them multiple times. As answered above, it's only VCCs. It works like this:

1. You pay for the card on their site.
2. They send you a digital token
3. You redeem it on prepaiddigitalsolutions.com (you must fill name, address, phone, and email).
4. You'll be redirected to a page with your card details (Number, expiration date and CVV).

i've been using gyft since 2013 and egifter since 2017. those are my go-to gift card malls. i've never experienced a single problem with either site. egifter also provides discounts depending on payment method---for example, it's 2.5% off uber eats cards when you pay with crypto.

i guess this is what i get for speaking so highly of egifter......

for the first time, they screwed up delivering a gift card tonight. the payment confirmed on the blockchain, the order shows as completed, but the gift card didn't show up in my wallet. let's see how many days it takes them to fix this. this shit always seems to happen to me on friday nights. Angry

come to think of it, bitpay payments have become slightly wonky on egifter lately. it used to be like clockwork---one confirmation and the gift card would appear in my wallet. for the past month or so, there's usually been an unpredictable delay. after block confirmation, sometimes it comes after 1 minute, sometimes after 8 minutes, etc. but it was never much bother before. this is the first time a gift card never showed up at all.

I  can't vouch for bitrefill here because a friend of mine (from another country) purchased a voucher code for an online local shopping website and the voucher happened to be an invalid one. The support is yet to give him a feedback since then. It is better to purchase popular cards there instead of local ones.

It kind of negates the point. If you have a decent exchange you may as well use that as it'll almost certainly be cheaper than 2%.

they do offer a 2% discount for using LN.

that doesn't offer much consolation though. i can't be bothered with LN at this point. steep learning curve, alpha or early beta wallets with risk of losing funds.....or otherwise you need to use a custodial wallet. no thanks.


i've used cardcash a dozen or so times. i had a couple bad experiences where they sent an e-card with a $0 balance (were probably fraudulent). they covered them under their 45-day guarantee but it took some back-and-forth with support. bitpay refunds can be a hassle.

i'm now kinda paranoid about buying secondhand digital cards. i mostly use cardcash for physical gas cards (chevron, mobil, etc) now. those never give me problems.

there's a 2% discount for using bitcoin, which is nice.
