Decided to go for the giftcard because I saw the snackbox can contain some things I cannot eat as a vegetarian If we can select the same giftcard as last year I’m going to spend it on a lego set.
Ah, thank you so much for the explanation! I really appreciate it. I’m hoping they also give step-by-step instructions in the email, especially if there are any changes, because in this app-centric online-paying day and age, I somehow still only know how to do online shopping in only the straight-forward way, which is to just type in the card numbers and click “Pay now”.
Oh, thank you! I’ll check it out!
Same here! Plus I wasn’t sure how food delivery would go down at our border. I’m still thinking on what to spend mine on, but I’m leaning toward either some books, the book nerd that I am, or one of those jade rings they always wear in K-Dramas if I can find one, because I’m kind of obsessed with how pretty they are and I’ve wanted one ever since I first saw them.
I’ve also had the giftcard before. They just ask you to choose which store (you get a limited selection based on the country of residents you choose) you want to spend it at and give you a code to redeem it at that store. I think this year it’ll be the same.
You could also choose virtual Visa card which you could use on whatever
Thanks so much for the help and explanations, guys!
I will… I wouldn’t probably eat all those snacks, but my daughter can use the giftcard in the US or I’ll buy her something. I’m surprised the giftcard is only in US$.
Thanks Viki !
In my form there wasn’t any question about a store selection it said either US$ gift card, snack or opting out of the gift. - Am I the only one???
You get that option when you get the email to redeem the giftcard.
I didn’t keep the email from last year, so I don’t remember all the details, but you’ll get instructions on how and where to redeem the giftcard.
Last time Viki did use Tremendous for the giftcard. That’s a service where you can pick the giftcard you want from a selection and the $50 will be converted in euro’s. You can ask for a Visa card, use it for a donation but also pick a card from Zalando and many others. I assume they use the same service now as well. You will get a mail from Viki later and then from Tremendous as well. If they use the same service that is.
Each year it’s the same form to fill. So I’ve decided to make an alternance. Year A > physical gift / year B > digital gift. This year it will be the digital gift for me. Last year I was happy with those t-shirts! I’m really curious about the physical gift and snacks. I hope people will share pictures of it here.
So do I
Hey, when have you received your gift? I mean digital, and how will you know you got this?
Then I hope I can just choose the prepaid Visa card so I can use it anywhere.
I opted for the digital gift last time. It was like any other email from Viki.
Then clicking on Redeem will take you to the stores available. I redeemed it on Flipkart.
Last year we got it in march but maybe this year we will get it sooner.
I got the same mail as shraddhasingh.
Same here @cerejacult , I’m not that very confident to get a physical gift either lol. We live in Brazil and things to get here… Ugh! It’s a hard battle. Plus… we don’t know when and how it’ll arrive here🤡. And at the same time it’d be awesome, maybe next time when things get easier and better lol. But the giftcard is a way much better and safer as you said😍. At least for me who’s online on sites and stuff like that, having a giftcard to spend on will be a well-wasted reward lol.
I had to take the giftcard since I cant eat some of the stuff in the box.
There are sadly not many giftcard options for my country. So Ive gotten the same option every year
You, like others, have stated that you can’t eat somethings from the box.
That’s the downside of having an edible option
Yes, I would have picked the snackbox if I could eat everything. I like it that Viki gave the allergies information and such up front so that doesn’t come as a surprise later.
I usually go for the digital card so I can get something on my wish list but this year I opted for the snack box. Why? Because I have looked at that snack box in the past and was too cheap to buy it myself. lol
