1/There's been some conversation about Giftme, so let's explain what we actually do and how it works. 🇯🇲 Giftme is a Jamaican technology company that has spent over 5 years building digital gifting, rewards and payment infrastructure. Here's what you should know. 🧵 2/ 🎁 Digital Gift Cards Giftme allows individuals and businesses to purchase, send and redeem digital gift cards across 350+ participating merchants. From supermarkets and restaurants to everyday shopping and services. No physical gift card required. 3/ 💳 One Linked Card. Multiple Merchants. One of our features allows you to link your existing debit or credit card ONCE and earn rewards when shopping at participating merchants. No need to purchase a gift card in advance or maintain a separate balance. Simply use your linked card. 4/💰 Why Is There a Fee? Processing card transactions costs money. Our payment processing costs approximately 2.65%, which we pass through rather than absorb. This allows us to provide the convenience of linked-card transactions while sustaining the infrastructure behind the service. 5/ 🔍 Transparency Matters. Giftme discloses applicable fees upfront, including before you link your card. You can review the charges and decide whether the convenience and rewards make sense for you. There are no surprises about the disclosed fees. 6/ ⭐ Free vs Premium With the free tier, linked-card transactions attract a 2.65% fee, and eligible purchases earn 1% back. With Giftme Premium at US$8.99/month, the fee reduces to 1.25%, and eligible purchases earn 3% back. You choose what works for you. 7/ 🏢 Corporate Gifting & Rewards Giftme also helps companies distribute digital gifts, employee incentives, customer rewards and recognition. We've served over 600 corporations, making it easier for businesses to reward people without managing physical gift cards. 8/🛍️ Supporting Jamaican Businesses Giftme connects consumers with hundreds of participating merchants while giving businesses digital tools to attract customers, distribute rewards and drive additional spending. We're building infrastructure that benefits both merchants and consumers. 9/🇯🇲 Built in Jamaica. Built for Jamaicans. For over five years, Giftme has continued investing in technology, merchant partnerships, customer support, security and new products. Our business model, including applicable transaction fees, helps fund these services. 10/ We welcome questions, criticism and feedback. That's how products improve. But it's important to distinguish between a service having a disclosed fee and a service being dishonest. You don't have to like every pricing model to understand why it exists.
