Just in time for the holidays, gifting just got easier with Giftya. This new app is like Venmo for gift cards. You can use the app or website to send a gift of any amount to almost any merchant in the US.
It’s easy to send a GiftYa. You pick a cell phone number from your contact list, select an amount (up to $100), add a photo or video, and pick a delivery date. That’s it! Giftya will coordinate the gift and text the recipient.
It’s easy to redeem a Giftya. When you receive a GiftYa, you link your debit card and use your card at the selected merchant. Within a few days, GiftYa will credit you the amount gifted against what you spent. It’s quick and easy.
I received a complimentary Giftya for Maison Marcel. It’s a great coffee shop in my neighborhood. We went and I paid with my debit card. Within a few days, I received a credit.
I love the fact that I got a credit for a local shop that I enjoy. The other great thing was that I automatically was credited just by using the debit card in my wallet. No extra cards or codes needed and I didn’t have to tell the merchant. I was a bit concerned about linking my debit card but Giftya is partnered with Visa, Mastercard and Plaid and has a secure process. They use secure codes via your mobile number to confim each transaction.
