I got a gift card using sweat app and being in a country where i can't exchange crypto easily, it was really easy to use and was a nice gift ^^
I’ve bought over £2,000 worth of Apple Giftcards from them using USDT, as well as Amazon giftcards, Netflix, Spotify, and more using other Crypto currencies like BTC, LTC over the years.
I’ve never had any issues using them. I’ve used them on and off since 2019, but not very frequently.
If you want to pay with XMR, you can use Cake Pay, Coinscards, or Coinsbee.
I be buying my console gift cards on Bitrefill using crypto, Been using their service for over 2 years now always smooth and reliable..
I've been using Bitrefill for several years now. I've never had the slightest problem with my vouchers, and everything went absolutely smoothly and very quickly. The exchange rates are very reasonable, and I've already exchanged tens of thousands of dollars there. Highly recommended.
Been a frequent customer of Bitrefill for 4 years and it has been by far the most pleasant gift card selling company I have interacted with. First of all they have excellent prices compared to their competitors. Their support is friendly and responsive, only have had to interact with them once or twice due to delivery issues in their partners end and those issues were solved promptly. Never had any funds frozen or anything like that despite using mixed btc in the past so I don't feel like system is overly strict.
I’ve been using Bitrefill for over a year and have never had any major issues. For some stuck purchases, their support was helpful. As long as you stay within the transaction limits, you won’t be asked for KYC. However, note that for large Amazon Gift Card purchases, Amazon may request KYC verification.
Very old and trusted platform. A useful platform to buy gift cards.
