Regardless of which purchase path you choose, the checkout process will involve these steps:
- Review Your Order: On the checkout screen, your order summary will be displayed on the right side. Review the items and quantities.

Important Information About Purchases
- Accepted Payment Methods: GiftDeals accepts Visa, MasterCard, and Discover.
- No Gifting Options: Currently, GiftDeals does not offer the option to add a gift message or customize the gift card. Gift cards are intended for self-purchase and are linked to the purchaser's phone number due to the secure delivery process.
- Purchase Limits: While there are no purchase limits in a given order, there are regulatory restrictions on the total value of sales per day. This might impact your ability to purchase a large number of items all at once.
Order Confirmation
- Confirmation Screen: After clicking "Pay now" and successful payment, you will be presented with an order confirmation screen.
- Confirmation Email: An order confirmation email will be sent to the email address you used for your account. This email will include your order number and a summary of your purchase.
