November 2026: what FlipGift’s marketplace records show

This is an early-November snapshot of FlipGift's own marketplace, not a forecast or a report for the whole month. The source database snapshot was saved at 2026-11-05T08:30:24.352Z. Counts below are frozen to that snapshot; the Value Index can show newer data.

Three measures that should not be mixed

The deal cohort spans 2026-07-22 to 2026-11-05 by creation date. These are all-time cohort counts at the snapshot, not transactions completed during November. Known test accounts and currently banned parties are excluded. These filters do not constitute an independent audit of every transaction.

Completed prices by brand

A ratio is the share of the retail checkout amount before fees. For example, 80% corresponds to a 20% discount before the buyer's fee and seller's fee; it does not mean the seller withdraws 80 cents per dollar.

Small samples matter: a value based on one purchase describes that purchase, not a typical payout for the brand. Brands without a completed purchase have no completed-price estimate. The sample comes from one small marketplace and is not representative of gift-card resale prices elsewhere.

What buyers and sellers can use this for

Sellers can compare their advertised rate with the offer book, while buyers can check whether a brand has listed supply. Neither should assume that the largest order capacity and the deepest discount belong to the same seller. The matched quote for a specific order is the relevant price.

For an illustrative $100 checkout at 20% off, the discounted amount is $80. The buyer's 2.5% share of the fee adds $2, giving an $82 payment; the seller's 2.5% share leaves $78 before withdrawal. External funding costs and withdrawal charges can change the net result. This example is arithmetic, not a promised current offer.

Food and Travel are separate

The research snapshot contains 0 Food deals and 0 Travel deals. We therefore do not publish an observed typical match time, completion rate or AI-arbitration accuracy for those directions. Their live catalogues and operating rules are available on the Food and Travel pages. They are not included in the goods price ratios above.

Reproduce or cite this snapshot

Download the immutable November 5 JSON or CSV. The daily offer history contains dates, brand names, offer ratios and counts; it does not reconstruct historical completed-deal states. The snapshot archive lists future daily exports.

Methodology v2 begins November 5, 2026 with an explicit goods-only filter and separate matched/completed samples. Daily offer rows through November 5 inclusive were captured before the change, used goods-enabled brands and may contain other kinds of offer. The daily series switches to v2 on November 6; the separate full JSON/CSV export already uses v2 on November 5. We preserve that history but do not calculate a trend across the methodology change. Current deal states can later change after disputes; an immutable snapshot records what was known at its capture time.
