Newegg Nike Gift Card Deal
While I truly love blockbuster type deals that generate a ton of return, smaller deals tend to add up over time. For example, deals like this week’s Staples Visa gift card offer are limited to 1 per household, however they happen many times per year. While it is only possible to earn 2,000 points or so per deal, you can do it 10-20 times per year.
Another similar deal I have been taking advantage of this week is a small gift card offer at Newegg. For over a week now they have been selling $50 Nike gift cards with a $10 bonus card. Basically, you are paying $50 for $60 worth of cards, a 16.67% discount off of face value.
Here is how it works:
- Buy 3 sets of gift cards at 83.33% of face value.
- Sell for 84-87% of face value.
- Earn 3X ThankYou points by paying with the AT&T Access More card.
- Earn 2X Ultimate Rewards points with the Shop Through Chase portal.
In the end you are earning a mixed 5X plus a small profit.
Need to Know
There are a couple of things you need to know:
- There is a hard limit of 3. Newegg is good at enforcing limits, so it is hard to get around them. Not impossible, but difficult.
- The limit resets every 48 hours. As long as this deal sticks around then you can buy 3 cards every 2 days. Not bad!
Use for Shopping – 15X
Just in case you don’t want to sell your cards, you can turn around and keep your 16.67% discount plus 5X and add another 15X United miles to it with today’s one-day only sale. Depending on how you value the points/miles, that could amount to a 50%+ savings.
Conclusion
I honestly don’t know why I didn’t write about this deal before today, but I think it is a good example of a smaller offer that can add up. I have purchased a few sets of these cards and will continue to do so every 48 hours as long as they let me.

Can you purchase the Nike GCs on newegg.com with a Newegg GC?
Try and let us know…
I’ve never been able to do that.
very small profit… but ok.
@Elizabeth It’s another company, not one of the ones you mentioned.
@Jeremy No but Nike is. Reread.
How are you liquidating the $10 cards? Most exchanges are showing a card minimum of $11 or $15. The only one I’ve found that seems to accept $10 is Cardpool, but for some reason it is saying all of the card numbers and pins are invalid.
same question here
Looks like cardcash does not accept $10 Nike gift cards, the minimum is $11. Is there any other websites that accept $10 Nike gift cards? Thanks!
I know The Plastic Merchant accepts them.
Thanks!
How are you selling the $10 card when no one accepts less than $11/15 gift card value?
Newegg isn’t a 15x store
How do you sell the $10 gift card, most website have a minimum on gift card balance requirement.
