    Are there $5 gift cards as well?

    • broadway96

      You are paying for a $10 gift card and using the $5 credit for it so there are many other ones you can get. Also you dont have to download the app you can do it from a computer too.

      • Jenn

        I saved my TRUS to my google wallet and when downloading the app it just says waiting so I can check my wallet from the computer? Awesome!

  2. Barb J

    Got a $10 Target gift card for $5. Thanks.

  3. Layla

    Got a $10 VS card for $5

    • Jena

      Is the giftcard an e-gift card that they email you?

      • Layla

        It’s a gift card that you access from the website.

        • Lindsey

          Got the VS gift card too and added it to my iphone passbook so I wont lose it! (:

  4. Ella

    Thanks, I just purchased Amazon gift card πŸ™‚

  5. L.

    I love this app. Been using it for about a month now to keep giftcards straight and get credit back when I buy giftcards. Shared on Facebook.

  6. April

    Got a $10 target gift card and a $5 toysrus giftcard for $5 woohoo thanks

  7. Ash

    What is Google wallet??

  8. kate

    hi did anyone have their purchase pending? it says that my payment is being processed and could take as much as 3 hours. Did anyone else get this message?

    • April

      Check the appp my gc was there immediately

      • kate

        I did the gc is there but i am not able to see the gift code. When I click on the reveal gift code, it says my payment is being processed. Not sure what is happening.

    • Veronica

      I got this “purchase pending” notice as well. About 30 seconds later, I got an email from Discover (I used my Discover card for the purchase) saying they detached fraud and needed me to verify whether or not my purchase through Gyft was actually made by me. I verified this on Discover’s website, but then Discover told me that “Any declined transactions would need to be tried again,” so I hope it works! FYI Hope that helps someone

    • Sherry

      I got the same thing, so I canceled. Chase sent me something from fraud protection asking about the transaction. When I tried to redo, my code wasn’t valid anymore. It’s a bit worrisome.

      • kate

        I got a confirmation about half an hour later. But when my husband created an account and tried to place an order, he got the same payment pending message and abt 10 minutes later, his order got cancelled.

  9. shannon

    Thanks…also went through ebates for a % back!

  10. broadway96

    I got a $10 Target card instead.

  11. CindyKay

    The gift card shows up in your wallet right after you complete email confirmation step.

  12. Arianne

    Wow, that was a neat deal Collin! Bought a $10 Amazon gc for $5. (Easily applied it to my Amazon account already). Than got a free $5 TRU. It’s like Free to me πŸ˜‰

    • sullivan1970

      This is what I did too. I love Amazon and prefer to keep any codes on my Amazon account so I don’t forget!

  13. alma

    I got one for groupon πŸ˜€

  14. Jill

    I signed up for the very first time and I never got my free $5 code. My husband signed up with his phone and info and got it right away. Very disappointed!

    • April

      Did you validate your email address click on the email they sent maybe that will help

    • Julie

      Did you sign up through Facebook? I didn’t get anything either.

      • April

        I signed up with email can you redo it and see if tgat hekps?

  15. Katie

    Can you get the 5$ toys r us promo everytime u use google to buy a gift card? Or is it a onetime thing?

  16. Megan

    Got an Amazon gift card! Thanks!

  17. Brittany

    I never got
    A validation email of any kind……

  18. Doreen

    I just want everybody know that you will get charge tax on this. I check my credit card and they was 5.00 and 1.00 on the card for a 10.00 amazon card still a good deal $4.00 free money.

    • Tyler

      You can’t charge tax on a gift card – that $1 charge is probably a temporary verification of your payment method and will not actually post to your account.

    • AGF

      Doreen, that $1 charge will most likely disappear. Credit cards often put temporary holds on cards to ensure they’re valid before charging the full amount. Gift cards are not taxable in most states.

      Also, I just went directly to Gyft and registered using Facebook. It posts the $5 code immediately on the screen and you can copy/paste it. The only thing you need to go to your e-mail for is if you pay using Google Wallet and need to claim the additional $5 Toys R Us gift card.

      • Doreen

        Thanks everybody I hope it will come off

  19. Vivian

    The sign up page is not opening up…

  20. Emily

    I never edieved a 5 promo did I do so,etching wrong. I verified my email but nada…pls help

  21. Jaclyn

    Such an awesome deal! Thank you Collin. Bought an AE gift card to buy my brother’s some shirts for xmas!

  22. April

    I added my target giftcard to the target app so now I can use it instore easily and I verified I can use the Toyrus gc online. This is my fav deal so far today thank you so much!!!

  23. Jen

    I am saving up for a swing set and now I am $5 closer πŸ˜€ thank you so much!

  24. Kristin

    Thanks! Wowza!

  25. Ashley

    I can’t figure out how to use the toys r us gift card. I save to my wallet and downloaded the app, but don’t see it. Help please πŸ™‚

    • Ella

      I can’t open it also, mine said unsupported browser πŸ™

  26. Hanneke

    Thanks so much! Got my husband a Starbucks gift card!

  27. Guacho Nieto

    Can you do this multiple times by creating different accounts and paying with different credit cards?

  28. nicki

    anyone get an ‘order has failed verification process’ message?

    • Intchina

      Yep, I got a ‘failed verification’ message, signed out of Gyft, and tried signing back in, and then I was told “suspicious activity, check email”. i went to check email, where I got a message saying ‘fill this form to reactivate account’. I clicked on the link and it took me to a page saying ‘upload color copy of your drivers license’ to verify account. REALLY?!? This sounds like suspicious in itself, sorry, gyft, I am not sending color copies of my ID to anyone.

      • Nic

        Yes I tried many times and still same thing. Signed my hubby up and got the same thing with his account! Pretty bummed oh well πŸ™‚ Happy Thanksgiving!

    • Brittany

      I got the exact same message! I would check your bank account though because mine is already showing a Paypal deduction of $5. I did all the steps correctly. I went back and tried to enter the code again after the error message and it said code is no longer valid. Should have known this was too good to be true 😞

  29. Melissa

    google wallet is not showing as a payment option for me. Can anyone help?

    • Ella

      I am not sure but I think is only if you already have and use wallet , you should be logged in automatically.

    • Megan

      Are you on an apple device? If so it isn’t going to show up.

  30. sheena

    Thanks so much, got the Starbucks $10 gc for $5….

  31. sarah

    Just a heads up, I just checked and Toys r Us black Friday deals are online now! So if you were able to score the $5 gyft card you might want to check it out. I grabbed a train table set for my daughter for $39,99 – $5 gyft card with free in store pick up! They also had Frozen look and find books for $5.99 so only 99 cents if you have the $5 gyft card and can do in store pick up!

    • lisawillman

      How did you find your Toys R Us gift card code after making the gyft purchase?

      • Yvonne Bush

        they sent it in an e-mail. you click on claim it and then you have to download google wallet on your phone. I did this and as soon as I opened the app and you click on use gift card it will show you the toys r us gift card

        • lisawillman

          Is the email from Toys R Us or Gyft or Google Wallet? I still don’t see anything from any of them, except one from Gyft saying that my purchase was completed. But the email doesn’t mention the Toys R Us.

  32. T.Cooper

    has anyone had problems with the toysrus gift card showing up in the google wallet

    • sita

      yes i hvnt see toysrus gc yet! πŸ™

    • Yvonne Bush

      It says you will receive the toys r us gift card in our mailbox which I assume means your e-mail acct you signed up with.

  33. Jessica K

    Thanks so much. I bought a $10 Target gc for $5.

  34. Jenn

    Ok I feel sooooo dumb! I went to PayPal and once I paid I realized I was suppose to pay to google wallet. πŸ™ Now what do I do????? Help!

  35. Sherry

    Still having issues, even though they told me to wait a half hour and try again. Waited two hours and still not working. Untrustworthy site.

    • Brittany

      I agree Sherry. Too many sketchy issues going on with this promo. Just hope my bank information isn’t compromised.

  36. lisawillman

    Could someone please walk me through how to find my Toys R Us gift card? I paid with google wallet and got a confirmation email of my purchase, but I don’t see anywhere in the email where it mentions the Toys R Us card. Is there another way to access it?

    • Yvonne Bush

      I haven’t got the e-mail yet confirming my purchase. So hopefully it will show up in my e-mail

    • April

      Should be in the email you got about your order. Did you pay for your order with google wallet?

      • lisawillman

        Yes, I did. Still no email about Toys R Us though.

  37. Andrea

    Nice!

  38. Jenn

    Way too much time on this! I did get the email with the TRUS coupon BUT when I click on it nothing happens. Anyone else???

    • T.Cooper

      Same thing is happening to me. Cant find the toysrus gift card in my google wallet even though it is supposedly saved to my google wallet.

      • April

        Did you click the email link to save it to google wallet? Once u do it will be listed under giftcards in google wallet.

      • Jenn

        Same here! :/ T. Cooper….have you found it yet?

  39. Nono

    It’s now requiring $15.00 purchase even though there is NO restriction that I can see on the $5 credit its self.

    • Melissa

      Yeah i just joined and it says off of a $15 purchase now. Still not horrible but not as good as it was.

  40. MeganW

    Is anyone else who has an iphone or iPad having trouble seeing their toys r us promo card on google wallet? Helpppp

    • Jenn

      I can’t find it on my ipad, iphone or laptop. Errrr! I did get the email with the link. Blaaaah!

  41. Kami

    Please be careful!!! We got the gift cards one on my credit card and one on my husbands now we ran to the store to pick up some cool whip and my card was declined, and so is my husbands it said our cards were not valid.
    The last time this happened I had bought something online and my bank said it was fraudulent and froze my card. Now I have to wait to call and get it fixed because its a holiday weekend. So much for Black Friday shopping tomorrow. We had put aside some money to take care of all the kids presents tomorrow too. I am happy for the gift cards but this stinks. Oh well maybe God’s trying to tell me not to go out shopping tomorrow. πŸ™‚

    • Jenn

      Ohhhh my!!!! Same happened here! The only way we were able to do shopping was bc the bank had sent him a new card and we activated it. Errrr!!!

  42. Lindsay Fitchett

    My code is only good for $5 off $15. Not sure why?
    Also, you can get 2% back from Ebates.com

  43. scupido

    They must have changed the terms. Should’ve checked out yesterday! Now, they only allow redemption of the $5 on $15. Still good, but really messed up the card I WANTED to purchase, which was only available in $10 or $25 πŸ™ Still a nice deal.

    • traci

      amazon.com gift cards=can do in increments of $15

  44. CO Mama

    Total Bait & Switch! Very annoyed would have not signed up if gift card purchase on my end was more than $5. On phone with customer service, very unhelpful, telling me those are the terms and conditions. Which I questioned them why were the terms and conditions different 2 days ago…..bad business practice IMHO.

    • Amanda

      Same here. I begrudgingly bought a gift card and as soon as I use it, I’m closing this account. I would close it now but I want to make sure the gift card even works. This is what I was told via Chat:
      I do apologize for any inconvenience. For those who didn’t use the $5.00 promo card, We’ve changed the promo Gyft Card settings. The Gyft Card can now only be redeemed for purchases of $15 or more. This applies for all “previously issued but not redeemed” and future $5 Gyft Cards for this promo.

  45. Megan

    If you’re trying to use the toysrus gift card online, don’t copy and paste it. I tried and tried to get it to work, but it wouldn’t and as soon as I typed the gift card number in our worked! Scared me for a minute! Loved this deal! I scored a $10 applebees card for $5 and got the free $5 toysrus card. Thanks for sharing!

  46. Claudine

    This is a scam. I purchased the $10 Starbucks gift card the other day and applied my $5 gyft card and instead of charging my account $5 they charged $10. Now when I try to use it again it tells me that I must purchase at least $15 even though this is not stated anywhere on their website. I see (above) that several people have had issues with their banks and credit cards on this site. Run away. This is not worth it.
