Carnival gift cards on Raise.com

I don't know if this has already been posted about here, but just in case . . . I just discovered that you can buy Carnival gift cards on the website raise.com.  You get 10% back in "Raise Cash," which you can use to buy other gift cards on their site.  The gift cards are e-gift cards, and you can specify the exact amount that you want to buy.  It was super easy!  Oh, and raise.com participates in Ebates - only 1% cash back as of now, but every little bit helps!

Raise is a reseller.  It is always risky to purchase cards from a reseller.  Apparently, it is risk to sell cards to them, too https://www.resellerratings.com/store/Raise

I buy gift cards from Raise all the time - never had a problem - close to $10,000 this year!  Sometimes the 'Raise Cash' takes a bit to credit back, but it will.

Very risky!  I had an issue a few years ago, and almost had my cruise cancelled.  Don't use resale cards.  You are really taking a risk.

I don’t know the ins and outs, but these particular Carnival gift cards aren’t resold gift cards but are sold directly from Raise. There’s no discount on them (as is usually the case with resold cards), other than getting the Raise Cash back. And, since they are e-gift cards, you can use them immediately.
