GIFT Giftify Inc

Giftify, Inc. (NASDAQ:GIFT) (the "Company"), the owner and operator of CardCash.com and Restaurant.com, and a leader in the incentives and rewards industry, today announced the expansion of its CardCash.com platform into the high-margin sports retail sector, offering consumers smart saving solutions for sports fans to save on tickets, apparel and game-day essentials as part of the Company’s strategic growth initiative for 2025.

With the 2025 MLB season getting underway, fans are facing rising costs for tickets, gear, and game-day essentials. The average cost of attending a baseball game has climbed to $152 for a family of four, with premium seats seeing increases as high as 38.8%. But CardCash.com, a leading secondary gift card exchange operated by Giftify, is stepping up to help fans save.

By using discounted gift cards from StubHub, Nike, Adidas, Under Armour, Dick’s Sporting Goods, and Fanatics, families can cut costs on tickets, jerseys, and game-day snacks.

For example, a family of four heading to a Yankees game this season, their tickets alone would cost over $300, but by paying with StubHub gift cards purchased at CardCash.com at an 11% discount, they save over $30. Grabbing team gear from MLB Shop? That's another 11% saved.

Making Baseball More Affordable

“With rising ticket prices, fans are looking for ways to save without missing out on their favorite teams,” said Carol Rosenblum, Marketing Manager at CardCash.com. “By using our discounted gift cards, baseball lovers can cut costs by 10-20%, whether they’re buying tickets, upgrading their game-day outfits, or picking up tailgating gear.”

Spring Cleaning: Turn Unused Gift Cards into Game-Day Cash

The CardCash.com platform offers a comprehensive solution for sports fans: not only can they purchase discounted gift cards to save on upcoming expenses, but they can also monetize unused gift cards by exchanging them for cash or store credit—creating a complete financial ecosystem for sports enthusiasts. Just as fans engage in spring cleaning around their homes, CardCash encourages them to clear out their wallets and drawers of forgotten gift cards and transform that untapped value into memorable sports experiences.

“As MLB teams welcome fans back to stadiums across the nation, this is the perfect time for people to check their wallets, trade in unused gift cards, and put those funds toward experiences they’ll actually enjoy,” said Ketan Thakker, CEO of Giftify, Inc. “Why let old gift cards go to waste when they can help get you to the ballpark? This sports fan initiative represents a key component of our 2025 growth strategy to penetrate high-frequency consumer spending categories while building recurring engagement with our platform.”
