Gift cards and/or e-gift cards ("Gift Cards") may be used solely to purchase items sold by the Babylist Shop and cannot be used to purchase items sold by other retailers. The Babylist Shop only ships within the United States (excluding US territories and APO/DPO/FPO boxes).
Gift Cards are not replaceable if lost or stolen. The Gift Cards have no expiration date, but in certain states, after a period of time, may be escheatable to a state based upon its unclaimed property or abandoned property laws. Once escheated to a state, Gift Cards may no longer be redeemed. Gift Cards are not redeemable for cash or transferable to another account except as required by applicable law.
Gift Cards can be combined with other Gift Cards, gift certificates or other coupons for any given individual transaction on the Baby List, Inc. Website. A Gift Card cannot be used as a credit or debit card. We reserve the right to limit quantities and usage amounts of Gift Cards purchased by any person or entity and to cancel a Gift Card if We believe that the Gift Card was obtained through fraudulent or unauthorized means. No credit card, credit line, overdraft protection, or deposit account is associated with Your Gift Card. You cannot "reload" (i.e., you cannot add value/balance to your Gift Card at this time). If a Gift Card holder's purchase exceeds the amount of that Gift Card's balance, the Gift Card holder must pay the difference by another form of payment.
We reserve the right to correct the balance of a Gift Card if We believe that a billing error has occurred, and we disclaim all liability for any such billing errors. Gift Cards and their use are subject to these Terms of Use and the Privacy Policy, and use of a Gift Card constitutes acceptance hereof. Gift Card balances are not transferable.

How are digital gift cards delivered?
When the Thankbox is sent the recipient receives a unique and secure link to redeem their gift. They choose their currency, retailer online gift card of choice or prepaid Visa, Mastercard or PayPal transfer option, and are then sent the virtual digital gift card, individual e-voucher or transfer instructions to their Inbox.
How does the recipient spend their digital gift voucher?
Once the recipient has chosen their currency, retailer online gift card of choice or prepaid Visa, Mastercard or PayPal transfer option they can then go shopping. Ensuring to select any ‘pay by online gift voucher’ or similar option at checkout.
Many stores will also allow any virtual gift card to be used for more than one transaction, up to the gift card collection total amount. Split payments between virtual gift cards and credit cards are also common with many retailers, as are payments in physical stores, John Lewis being a good example.
Does adding to an online gift card collection have any fees?
We add a small fee to each gift contribution to cover our payment processing & fraud check costs.
This amount varies depending on the currency you are collecting in: 🇬🇧 GBP collections are charged at 1.1% + £0.17. e.g. contributing £10 means you'll pay £10.28 🇪🇺 EUR collections are charged at 2.5% + €0.17. e.g. contributing €10 means you'll pay €10.42 🇺🇸 USD collections are charged at 2.9% + $0.19. e.g. contributing $10 means you'll pay $10.48
The fee is always clearly and explicitly stated whenever someone leaves a contribution.
To minimise fees when making multiple contributions you can top up your gifting wallet once and use it for multiple Thankboxes.
Are payment details handled safely?
Thankbox uses Stripe as our payment provider. They are the gold standard for internet payments, used by companies such as Airbnb, Lyft and Booking.com. They handle all of the payment details, including security.
All collected digital gift card funds are stored in a dedicated secure bank account with restricted access.
Can I pay for my Thankbox from the collection pot?
100% you can!
It's a great way to split the cost of sending the Thankbox between all the contributors. Just pick the Pay from your gift collection balance option when checking out.
