GiftCardRescue.com is an online service that helps people exchange their unwanted gift cards for cash. It is founded on the idea that most people receive gift cards at some point, but then don’t use them. GiftCardRescue.com provides a way for users to convert those unused cards into cash. The service is simple: users enter the gift card information, and GiftCardRescue.com provides an estimated value of the card. Then, users can either accept the offer and get cash, or decline the offer and keep the card. The process is secure and fast, with payment typically taking one to three days. GiftCardRescue.com also provides users with the option to donate their gift card proceeds to charity.
Starbucks' discontinued main Starbucks app is now used for card payment.
