How to send gift cards internationally in 2025

Sending a gift across borders used to mean expensive shipping, customs delays, and the dreaded "your parcel is stuck" message. Digital gift cards solve all of that.

Why digital gift cards are perfect for international gifting

- Instant delivery โ€” No shipping, no customs, no delays. The code arrives by email in seconds. - No exchange rate surprises โ€” Gift cards are denominated in the recipient's local currency. - Available in 80+ countries โ€” We stock cards for markets across Africa, Europe, the Middle East, North America and beyond.

Step-by-step: sending internationally

  1. Browse by country โ€” Use the country filter on our Gift Cards page to see exactly what's available in the recipient's region.
  2. Choose the right brand โ€” Some brands (Amazon, Netflix) have separate regional cards. Make sure you pick the right country.
  3. Select "Someone else" โ€” When adding to cart, toggle to "Someone else" and enter the recipient's email.
  4. Pay and done โ€” Stripe processes your payment, and the code lands in their inbox.

Important tips

- Region matters. An Amazon US gift card cannot be redeemed on Amazon UK. Always match the card country to the recipient's location. - Currency denomination โ€” The card value is in the recipient country's currency (e.g., a โ‚ฆ5,000 Jumia card for Nigeria). - No physical address needed โ€” Everything is digital. No PO box, no customs form.
