About CardCycle

Unspent gift cards, back in circulation

Roughly $21 billion in gift card value goes unused every year. CardCycle turns those forgotten balances into cash for sellers and real savings for buyers — with the checks in place to make each trade safe.

Verified people, not anonymous codes

Every seller passes identity review before a listing can go live, and payouts only release to a verified bank account.

Codes stay locked until paid

A card's code and PIN are only ever revealed to the buyer whose payment cleared. Nobody else — not other shoppers, not other sellers.

One card, one buyer

Purchases are settled atomically, so two people can never buy the same card. Refreshing or retrying never charges you twice.

Fees you can do math on

5% from the buyer, 5% from the seller. No subscriptions, no listing fees, no surprise deductions at payout time.

How a trade works

01

Create your account

Pick a username, confirm your email, and complete identity verification once.

02

List or browse

Sellers set their own asking price and see the exact payout. Buyers filter by retailer, discount and cashback stack.

03

Get paid or get your code

Payment clears, the code unlocks instantly for the buyer, and the seller's balance moves to their payout panel.
