Four steps, zero code-sharing
From unwanted card to cash — or from cash to a discounted order — with escrow in the middle.
Pick a store & deal
Sellers list gift card value from 199 stores; buyers request what they want at a discount. We match both sides.
Money locks in escrow
The buyer's payment is held by FlipGift — the seller never sees it until the deal is done.
Seller delivers with proof
The seller uses their own card to place the order — screenshots and tracking required. The card code never changes hands.
Confirm & release
The buyer confirms delivery and escrow releases the funds to the seller.
We shut down code swapping — on purpose
FlipGift started as a card-for-card swap. We closed it, and here is why.
In any trade where a gift card's number and PIN change hands, the previous owner still knows the code after the deal. They can drain the balance an hour, a day or a week later — and no platform on earth can stop them. That is not a bug in one service; it is how gift cards work.
Rather than pretend we had solved the unsolvable, we retired swapping and rebuilt FlipGift around escrow: the seller keeps their card and redeems it themselves to deliver your order, while the money sits locked with us until delivery is confirmed.
You never type a card number into FlipGift — so we never store one. If another site asks you to hand over a code to a stranger, whatever it calls itself, walk away.
