lthough they are often looked at as the easy way out when it comes to giving presents, gift cards are more popular than ever during the holidays. But if you’re going to forgo thinking of the perfect gift for a friend and instead get them a gift card you’re going to want to at least make sure you get them a good one.
Well, in case you missed it, WalletHub has just come out with their list of the best gift cards, judging 50 of the most popular gift cards on a variety of criteria including:
- How popular the cards are
- How much of a discount you can buy them for
- How much you can sell them for
- How much people like the retailer
- Shipping fees
So, which card is the best one out there? Well, not all that surprising, an Amazon Gift Card tops the list. An Amazon card is by far considered the most popular card to give, plus it gets a retailer rating 2.69 out of five, which isn’t the highest, but still pretty good. While Amazon is the most popular, the Target Gift Card actually lands the highest WalletHub score, with a 70, although it is only the fourth-most popular card.
