One thing to note about eGifter if you're just looking for places that sell Amazon gift cards is that the site only accepts full payment in eGifter points for them, which you can only acquire from buying other cards on their site. It wasn't always like this and I used to buy AGCs pretty often from the site, but I figured it's something important to know. Seems like Amazon's the only gift card that you can only buy with site points on eGifter, though, and I've bought a few thousand dollars from the site over the years with very few issues.

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.

Btw I have one question, for example imagine that I want to buy something from sephora and receive that item in America but they don't accept cards from my country (repeat again, for example), so I can't buy item. By purchasing Sephora's gift card, am I capable to buy item that way or still they need some information on my card and billing address? Or gift card and shipping address will complete this task?

A shipping address and a gift card should complete the task. If Sephora doesn't ship to your country, you could buy U.S gift card, redeem it, and buy/ship the items to Shipito.com (a service which gives you an address on the U.S. they accept BTC).

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).

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?

I'm sure I've spent more than 1500$ (Lifetime), but I'll DM them on Twitter and also P.M the representative on the forums to get a confirmation.

Thank you! Added to the list.

Bitpay's wallet now offers in wallet gift cards. I'm in the UK and they did only offer Amazon.com gift cards. Now there's plenty of them. I guess it's going to vary as to your location.

I notice they're also offering a Mastercard digital gift card for set amounts like the other place mentioned. I've never heard of this before. Must be a new thing.

since both sites pulled amazon.com gift cards, i had to look elsewhere for them. one option is the bitpay wallet, which has a built in gift card mall. i've used it dozens of times without issue, but one time i had a frustrating issue where a card wasn't delivered and it took a week to resolve.


Thank you! I will look more into BitPay and add it.

I've never heard of verification being needed with Bitrefill. I've easily spent well over $1,500 there, although admittedly never in a single transaction. I know that verification is required for using more than $1,000 of FastBitcoins vouchers, which is specified here: https://www.bitrefill.com/fastbitcoins/. You also require verification if spending more than $1,000 directly from Bitfinex, as specified here: https://support.bitfinex.com/hc/en-us/articles/360039873813-Understanding-Bitrefill. I can't find any mention of KYC or verification being needed for any other reason, though.

@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)

Coinsbee also sells prepaid MasterCard (VCC's). You can use them on websites that don't accept BTC directly.

i've never experienced a single problem with either site.
That's good to know. I've been aware of both those sites for a while now but have never tried either, partly because I wasn't sure if they were tried and tested and partly because I've always had great service from Bitrefill. I'll give them a closer look now though, especially if they are cheaper for some cards.

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.

since both sites pulled amazon.com gift cards, i had to look elsewhere for them. one option is the bitpay wallet, which has a built in gift card mall. i've used it dozens of times without issue, but one time i had a frustrating issue where a card wasn't delivered and it took a week to resolve.

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.

Maybe purse.io can be included there, I know it isn't gift card provider but at some point you can pay with crypto and buy things on amazon, instead of buying dedicated gift card, you buy item and pay with discount. Idk, it's your choice.
