Let’s face it, not everyone likes to shop. Whether purchasing household goods, clothes or gifts, many people lack the patience, time and interest. This fact of life is one of the reasons why gift cards are such a great idea. Because if you dislike shopping, just delegate the task to a shopping aficionado that cares for you! It’s easy to do, just by giving them a gift card. With it, they’ll have the funds needed to purchase everything on your list. Problem solved! Life gets even easier when you send an American Express® gift card. It’s a one size fits all solution that virtually guarantees shopping ease and success. These 5 reasons why smart shoppers use American Express® Gift Cards may offer the life hack you’ve been searching for. 

American Express® Gift Cards

Convenience, Simplicity, Buying Power for Smart Shoppers

First, let’s consider the traits that constitute a smart shopper. They do their research before making a purchase. This lets them feel comfortable that they are making the right decision. They also look for payment methods that are convenient, reliable and secure. Those are all hallmarks of the American Express brand. When all is said and done, savvy people realize that the American Express eGift Card is an ideal payment method for shopping online and in-store. Here are five reasons why:

1. Funds do not Expire

Use your American Express® Gift Card at your leisure without concern for deadlines or expiration dates. Check the balance here.

2. Safer than Cash 

It’s essential to keep your valuables secure. Rest assured that your American Express® Gift Card is particularly safe because it is replaceable if lost or stolen*.

3. Widely Accepted

More places than ever welcome American Express® Gift Cards. Regardless of your shopping mission, your checkout experience will be consistent and smooth.

4. Shop Online

You’d be hard pressed to find an an e-commerce website that doesn’t accept the American Express gift card. Here’s a tip — make sure the balance of the American Express® Gift Card is more than the entire cost of the purchase, including taxes. More tips: When you’re completing your purchase, do not select “Gift Card”. Select ‘Credit’ or ‘Debit’ as the payment method. In the Payment Method section, enter the card information as you would a credit or debit card. In the Billing Address section, fill in your name and address. You’ll be good to go.

5. Shop In-Store

You learned to make the most of a challenging and sometimes fearful situation. Chances are, you became a more empathetic person. Very likely, you gained skills that may not have otherwise been required, perhaps in technology or healthcare. Those experiences may have shaped you more than you know. One thing is for certain, you are unique, capable and wonderful. As you graduate this year, rest assured that your efforts and hard work will pay off.

One of the great joys in life is to have loving, doting grandparents. They make birthdays and milestone occasions extra special. Grandparents get great pleasure from making their brood happy. And they do a good job of it. In return, they receive treasures like handmade greeting cards with crayon scribbled “I love you’s”. Handmade crafts from grade schoolers fill their shelves and line their refrigerators. Chances are, grandparents don’t need material or decorative items at this stage of their life. So, what are great gifts for them? Good health, safety and well-being are what they need most. This gift is easily found at eGifter.com. We’re referring to CVS gift cards. When the kids and grandkids are looking for a great gift for the grandparents – health and well being are the gifts that count.

CVS Pharmacy gift cards can be used to purchase an array of items to stock the shelves of grandparents and elderly relatives everywhere. With wellness items like vitamins, supplements and medicine chest essentials, gift cards are the way to go for sending good health.

The personal visit with a gift card in hand will mean the world to them. The practicality of a CVS gift card will let them know how much you care.

One of the most rewarding parts of our day is getting positive feedback from satisfied customers. This customer did a wonderful job of painting the picture. And we could not be more proud of our team and our technology. We bring you this quote from Tasha, who posted this review on the Trustpilot review site. Tasha, we’re so happy to have saved Christmas for you and your family! And now, a Christmas gift card review.

A Christmas Gift Card Review

“I was desperately looking for perfect Christmas gifts for 3 of my 4 kids – last minute, and after banking hours…unfortunately for my near zilch pocketbook! I needed the ability to purchase with my PayPal account and have immediate access (or at least within a day of pickup access) to my purchases.

I cannot thank or even begin to show my gratitude toward eGifter and its reliability during the very stressful holiday season! Soaring beyond any expectations with the service, actual usage of the services provided, ease of use with the site, the ability to access and pay for the services they provide, and lastly, the different levels of safety that I have yet to see with any other online sites that involve purchasing with PayPal (or any way of purchasing, actually!)

It was very fast, beyond what I was looking for this Christmas and resulted in it being what my own children called, ” the best Christmas EVER!”

This is not from a dollar stance or from a materialistic view, I have realized. This was mainly due to the fact that I wasn’t frantically running around with my usual overly stressed and often ending in a fight with my husband after a financially based issue that happened at the usual last minute retail store we visit!

In the past, THAT has been our experience: It’s Christmas even, the store is closing as we head to checkout line with our big ticket items in buggy. To our dismay and shock, our bank gives us MORE trouble with our debit card due to a suspected issue with fraud or something else. (That “something else” has thus far always been due to our own purchases being denied in a former transaction resulting in an authorization hold. We would never have anticipated that red flag!)

In those terrible past experiences, we felt so low that we started to fight immediately! We blaming each other even though neither of us were at fault — EVER!

Those past moments of embarrassment and upset had us leave the store empty handed to call our bank. I remember struggling to regain my self respect and self confidence, which I am sorry to say.

But I CAN say (so joyfully!) that THIS Christmas, I had NONE of that! While I was indeed a last minute holiday shopper, this year has been a truly memorable experience.

I know for sure that my great experience was due to my before-hand purchasing of gift cards as a backup in case we had any issues. Though I try to be proactive now, who needs a nervous breakdown in the middle of Walmart on Christmas eve?!

Not me, not this year! Or ever again!

Thanks eGifter, for the ability to buy with unusually unacceptable means and making it beyond easy and super fast! I owe you more than money can make up for, for certain!

Thanksgiving Day in New England is usually crisp and cool. Those lucky enough to have a full bounty get to enjoy traditional meals of turkey and all the fixings. Tablecloths and flowers adorn dining rooms, waiting for families and friends to gather for a day of togetherness. As the years fly by, time seems to move faster and gatherings like this seem more precious. Finding the right words and sentiments for a welcome toast become more meaningful. Expressing gratitude on Thanksgiving is the order of the day.

Expressing Gratitude on Thanksgiving

Many hosts set their holiday table with gifts or trinkets for their guests. For example, handwritten place cards with custom messages are one way to share love and thanks. Another way is to login to eGifter.com and purchase the gift card that matches the interests of each guest. Enter your special message and select Print Delivery.

Then, print the giftable PDF and add it to their place setting. Now you can acknowledge each guest with a a tailored message and handpicked item to express the Thanksgiving sentiment. Start off the holiday meal with a special gift custom selected for each person. With gratitude and appreciation filling the air, you’ll be off to a wonderful day.

Happy Thanksgiving!
