Analysis
It’s always worth taking a look at these deals for gift cards for your favorite merchant. You will usually get more savings this way, compared to any credit card rewards that you would get by paying the merchant directly.
I suggest searching GiftCardWiki to make sure the normal discount plus this offer is better than what you can get elsewhere. Sometimes it will be and sometimes it won’t. Also, popular brands tend to sell quickly, but in my experience Raise and CardCash generally have inventory loaded periodically during a sale so it pays to check back.
Happy saving!

CardCash must really be paying bloggers well to shill their shady business.

You can read all of those reviews and they all have one thing in common. People are making claims after the 45 day guarantee period is up and being denied. I personally have purchased dozens of cards from CardCash this year and have even had a few that were bad. (Which they refunded.) In every single one of our posts we advise readers to MAKE SURE to use the cards within that 45 day period. I personally use CardCash because most of the time they have the best discounts plus I earn 5X. For me that makes it worth doing business with them, but I never buy cards that I won’t use immediately and recommend that no one does either. With that said, I have yet to hear of a case where they failed to honor their guarantee within the 45 day period.
While man of the reviews are after the 45 day period, there are some that are within the 45 day period. Also, many of the complaints are about the gift cards being purchased with stolen credit cards. In many cases, this can cause your whole account to be closed by a merchant .
