Heads up, deal hunters! Giftcards.com is having a cashback bonanza on gift cards from now until January 3rd! Topcashback and BeFrugal are leading the charge with a sweet 8% cashback on brands like Home Depot, Airbnb, Sephora, Nordstrom, Marriott, and even Disney (physical cards only for Disney, so plan accordingly!). Shopback is also in the mix with 5% on regular gift cards, while Kudos offers 5% on everything through their Boost offer.
Why does this matter? Well, if you're already planning a purchase at any of these retailers, you're basically getting free money! Plus, these deals can often be "stacked" with other offers. For example, many Chase cards are offering 5% back when you pay with Paypal this month, including Freedom cards, so using that card to pay for your Giftcards.com purchase via Paypal could be a big win! Many Giftcards.com purchases also earn 1% back from their rewards program, so there are multiple ways to stack discounts. Note the standard $2,000 limit, so plan accordingly to make the most of these deals!
Why This Matters for Your Strategy
News in the points-and-miles world moves fast, and promotional changes often have a short window. If this announcement affects a card or program you hold, log into your awardtrail dashboard to check your current benefit usage, bonus progress, and whether a transfer or redemption makes sense right now — before terms change.
As a general rule: transfer points only when you have a specific redemption in mind — transfers are almost always one-way and non-reversible. If you're unsure of the value, check our redemption guides before acting.
