“I’ve just used two gift cards for the first time. Sainsbury’s and M&S - relatively easy to do. Only little savings but they will add up! I’m grateful for any help so thank you very much” - Jenny, National Disability Card holder
You can’t access our gift card discounts by showing your National Disability Card at the till. You will need to purchase a discounted gift card in order to make savings.
Most gift cards will be available instantly on your phone following purchase. You’ll also be sent an email, typically instantaneously, with a link to the gift card. Gift cards can be shown on your phone or printed out if you are using them in store, or the code on your gift card can be entered at checkout if you’re shopping online.
You can use any unused gift card balance on a future purchase.
Yes! We offer hundreds of other online discounts that simply require entering a discount code at checkout. Click the brand you’re interested in on our discounts homepage to find out whether it’s a code or a gift card.
The discounted gift cards we offer are e-gift cards or virtual gift cards. This means that instead of having a physical gift card you can scan in-store, the gift card is sent to your email address. You can print it out if you prefer, or access it straight from your email inbox on your phone when you're out and about.
🛍 If you're in-store, ask the cashier to scan the QR code in the gift card when you're at the till.
💻 If you're shopping online, the gift card will contain a unique code. Enter this code during checkout when prompted. There will be a section during the checkout process where you can add a gift card or a voucher code.
💡 Not all gift cards can be used in-store - please check the gift card portal for details and for any excluded stores.
