Our Verdict
This is a nice deal for a wide variety of gift card purchases. You can also potentially earn 1% back in Giftcards.com Rewards on the purchase. You can try stacking with some of the other promo code deals from Giftcards.com, just keep in mind the portal rewards are not guaranteed to track unless the code shows on the portal.
Capital One Shopping is supposed to be running a special on Giftcards.com purchases on October 8th, we don’t have the details on that yet. Regardless, many people will find the 5x/5% offer from Rakuten appealing.
