Our Verdict

I have never heard of this app before, apparently they offer deals and give you 60 seconds to decide whether to buy or not. You might need to swipe through a few deals before you see Uber. People have reported a lot of issues, with the app and getting what is promised in the past, I’d recommend reading through this Slickdeal threads (1, 2, 3).

Uber gift cards are like crack to me, but the fact I have to wait to get the gift cards until the 28th doesn’t fill me with confidence. I would have loved $400 in Uber gift cards for $320, but I’m going to have to pass because I don’t have enough faith in the app to deliver what they promise. I’m only posting because everybody has a different risk tolerance and maybe readers have personal positive experiences with this app.

Please share your own experiences with the app if you’ve used it in the past in the comments below.

Wow, lots of horrible reviews in the SD threads. They apparently have issues fulfilling their orders.

I would guess they’re probably sourcing their GCs from very shady sources, which could be resellers who used stolen credit cards.

While Uber gift cards can be redeemed instantly, I would be worried about Uber removing the account credit if the original GC purchase was charged back.

Can you chargeback the amount if the gift card is invalid or drained?

Can you load an Uber GC to your Acct for later use?

My gift card from them was drained. Another was deactivated. You have to be willing to use the Uber card fast enough for someone else not to drain it
