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.
