Company details

Written by the company

Based in Melbourne, Australia, The Card Network was founded with one purpose, to inspire the way people gift. We design gift cards for gifting, and we design systems to make it easier for gifts to be given. Why? Because we know it is more than a gift card. It could be a thank you, happy birthday, I love you or even a welcome to the world! Either way, it's so much more than a gift card. It is a chance to provide happiness and gratitude, and there is nothing better than that.

terrible user experience and even worse…

terrible user experience and even worse customer service.
Spent an hour adding a whole bunch of card numbers and pin codes to register to my name. only to find at the end that they just sent me an email for each individual card which each need the matching PIN code to do anything with. Spent ages on hold for customer service and once i got someone he wasnt helpful, just kept repeating himself and hung up on me. dont waste your time or money.
