Hi my name is Mike and like yourself, I'm also an internet citizen who always find a lot of free offers on the internet and sometimes I just don't know which one to choose, especially about gift cards.

Now I want to share to you what I've learned about these free gift cards offers and I hope that you will also learn the truth about these gift cards offers and help you to discover what to expect whenever you decided to get the gift card.

In most offers you will find 3 steps to claim the gift cards, these steps are very common on each offer and here are the 3 steps:

Step 1. The Registration Page

Upon registering you will see a registration page where you have to enter your contact information, usually it's your name, address, email address or in some cases your telephone number.

First of all you need to understand that it’s a legitimate business model between you and the advertiser. As much as you get the gift card without pay, the advertiser will in exchange get your contact information which he will use to advertise to you their products/services via email or telephone.

“But Is it safe to give away my contact information?”

Most advertisers have their own privacy policies to protect your contact information and how they use it. They won’t sell it to third party or send you spam emails because they want your business and I’m sure they will do everything to maintain a good long term business relationship with you. Should you have any doubts, you could always create a separate email account to use for this type of online offers, where you won’t care if they bombarded you with spam emails; you will be just fine

Step 2. The Sponsor Offers Page

In this step, you will need to participate (make some purchases) on some of the offers or surveys provided by the sponsors.

“Participation Required & Must Complete Some Offers or Surveys”

The statement above is the main rule to claim most of the free gift cards offers on the Internet.

Now let me explain this to you. Suppose you’re signing up for a $100 gift card offer, this offer usually requires you to complete (Buy) 13 different sponsor offers or surveys, which will more often than not be broken into 3 separate sponsor pages with a 2-2-9 formation, for example:

Page 1 : 2 offers
Page 2:  2 offers
Page 3:  9 offers

"What kind of sponsor offers they got there?"

Mainly there are 2 categories of sponsor offers such as:

1. Without Credit Card: You only need to sign up for a free news letters, free home business opportunities tips, or any other freebies that you can just register or download.

2. With Credit Card:

a) Free Trial Offers

You will receive free trial offer (free samples) of some branded products, but be very careful and read the re-bill term and condition and take note on how long the free trial offer period will last, is it a 7 days free trial? 30 days free trial? etc. (Bear in mind that you will not get charged as long as you cancel your subscription before the free trial period ends), However, take note that you may have to bear shipping and handling charges in most cases. (About 4-5 Dollars)

Tips: Cancel your subscription before the expiry of the trial offer period and you will get to keep the free samples without being billed for them.

b) One time purchase.

The aim of the advertiser in this case is to have you buy some products such as cosmetics, etc. unlike the free trials there’s no re-bill payment because you will be paying for the product anyway. It is out of part of the commission that the advertiser gets that he uses entice you with “free gift cards.”

Step 3. The Verification Page

In this step, the advertiser would need a written confirmation made by the sponsors about your offers completion status and then the advertiser will contact you to confirm your delivery address to send you the gift card.

“So no freebies?”

Yup! FREE is not actually FREE! I don't want to lie to you nor taking any advantages of you. Let's face it, there’s no such thing as free lunch, right? Just don’t be misled by free gift card campaigns that give the wrong impression about its being 100% free. At least now you know that it’s not...

“Selling You Gift Card With A Different Kind Of Approach…”

If you look at this business model carefully you will realize that it’s just a discreet way of selling you these gift cards through the sponsor offers as well as surveys without raising your suspicion. Whereas the gift card may look like a reward, the truth of the matter is that you just paid for it! No qualms about, it simply a business and that’s all.

“But How Can I benefit From This Offer?”

This is how – why should you part with $100 to receive a $100 gift card when you can simply complete some 13 sponsor offers and surveys worth between $5 - $7 to get the same item? It's like buying this gift card with a huge discount! That’s where the deal really is.

It’s pretty simple, if you are going to pay $7 and receive a product that would have otherwise cost you $100, then you really are in for a perfect deal. You only need to double check to be sure that what the sponsors offer you is actually worth that $100 and you are in good business.

So what are you waiting for?
