Many gift cards go unused because they are easily lost, misplaced, or forgotten. Consumers often struggle to keep track of gift card balances and may not have the physical card available when they want to make a purchase.

Gift Card Guard is a mobile application designed to help users manage and utilize their gift cards effectively. By allowing users to upload photos of their gift cards, the app automatically extracts and securely stores essential information, such as the card number and expiration date. The platform sends monthly email reminders to users, providing a summary of their unspent gift card balances to ensure they don't forget to use them. This centralized and proactive approach helps prevent wasted gift card value.
