Raise Reviews & Product Details

Excellent concept and competitors may successfully create a safe transaction system where Raise has failed. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Raise stole $200 from me. Unfortunately, this company has unethical and fraudulent practices. They have no customer support phone number and they claim Live Chat but I have never successfully used it.

Recently, I listed a ~$200 Best Buy gift card to be sold by Raise after it was 'approved' by their screening process. Two days later, it was sold and I was sent a congratulations email. Great!

Not so fast, a day after it sold they said there were no funds on the card and that they checked (after they approved it through the initial process).

I called Best Buy, and they informed me that the balance was cleared 10 minutes after it was sold on Raise and was used to purchase an Apple Watch in a state I don't live in. I presented this evidence to Raise in the 4th support ticket and this time they didn't even respond.

I filed a police report for the theft and will be pursuing all legal action possible. I do not recommend transacting with this company. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Finding ways to reduce our Cost of Living is what brought Raise to my attention. I can buy discount gift cards on Raise for things that I am going to spend money on anyhow and save money. We buy discount gift cards for groceries, clothes, going out to eat, going to the movies, etc. When I know I am going to be spending money I can visit their website and find the appropriate discount card most of the time. Raise provides a great service and they are prompt in getting your cards to you, electronically. And they sometimes run specials to give you even more savings on particular cards. I highly recommend Raise, for saving money. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Sometimes they are out of stock on the cards I am looking for. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I created an account because Raise offers money for higher end stores like Saint Laurent which I had a gift card for. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I received an email days later stating a "exprired review" reason for declining the offer. I really didn't mind them not accepting my card, but I emailed the help support to understand why my card was declined. It has been over 2 weeks now and I still have not received a response.

Ability to purchase gift cards in bulk for discount. I can get plenty at once avoiding major taxing issues. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The discounts are low I would rather see 30%-50%. I only see discounts for 2-6% that just covers tax. Also theres no points system to reward for being an active customers. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Wide range of vendors and good stock. One person's discard is another person's treasure. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Once I did have a gift card that did not work. Raise refunded my purchase without trouble, but I found out when I was at the merchant and it was awkward and I ended up paying full price cash on that occasion. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I like that I can purchase discounted gift cards to popular merchants, such as Starbucks and Target, which allows me to save money at the register or online. The discount is typically larger than what the merchant offers during special sales. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I don't like the fact the Starbucks gift cards cannot be transferred in the Starbuck's app; however, you can use them to buy a transferable gift card in the store itself. It's an extra step but it's worthwhile. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Its very easily to pick and choose your choice of occasion you are looking for and so many different options to choose from and always have deals and have deals Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I wish that their deals lasted longer than what they offer sometimes but other than that there is nothing else that is to complain about or don't like about it Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The only thing I have found raise to be helpful for is the exchange of gift cards with a sense of confidence. Assurance of the balance, validity and seller is not necessary and the platform isn't hard to navigate payment and payout acceptance of information the concept Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Lack of fulfilling instruct, verbiage is a bit confusing Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Raise has so many gift cards to choose from. They have varying degrees of discounts depending on the card. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Nothing to dislike about Raise. Fast email delivery and your sure to get a discount on each card. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

This is a secure site that has all of the gift cards that you'll want at discounted prices. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Some of the discounts could be even higher. Just sayin'. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
