November and December historically offer the best spreads between retailer discount gift card cost and brokers’ buying prices. The best rates are going to be with private buyers and small brokers, not with the big guys, but for obvious reasons you’re not going to find private buyers and small brokers here. We can discuss major brokers that are open to (most) churners though. For weekend funzies, let’s review the brokers as if they were greek gods:
- TheCardBay.com: Aphrodite for its best in class, seamless user interface
- CardCenter.cc: Hermes for its nimble, low-fuss design
- QCGC.io: Dionysus for welcoming everyone regardless of purity
- DCB: Athena for the group’s craft and warfare
- AlignedIncentiv.es: Ares for their chaotic energy that always produces… results
You’ve still got time to onboard with most of these for the holidays if you’re not already a member. Have a nice weekend, and may Olympus favor your manufactured spend.
