Before requesting a quote, confirm the gift card brand, issuing country or region, face value, and actual format. Keep the card unredeemed, prepare clear evidence without posting the code publicly, and use the live calculator only as an estimate until support confirms the final quote.

Key takeaways
Confirm brand, region, value, and format
Keep the card unredeemed and the code private
Treat the calculator as an estimate until human confirmation
1. Identify the exact gift card
Start with the full brand and product name rather than a broad label such as gaming card or Apple card. Record the issuing country or region and the printed currency. Regional and product differences can change which quote category applies, even when two cards look similar.
2. Record value and format accurately
Write down the face value and choose the format you actually hold: a physical card image, an electronic image, or a plain code. Do not choose a different format because its estimate looks more attractive. Some products use different verification steps and quote categories for images and codes.
3. Prepare evidence without exposing the code
When an image is required, prepare a clear and complete image that shows the requested card details. Keep redemption codes out of public posts and large group chats. A receipt is optional for an ordinary OKGift quote, but keeping it can help if the issuer later needs proof of purchase or activation.
4. Check the estimate and ask for confirmation
Use the live calculator to compare the current customer estimate and payout choice. Because supported demand and conversion settings can change, send the prepared details to support and wait for final human confirmation before continuing with the transaction.
Common questions
Is the calculator result the final quote?
No. The calculator is a current estimate. Support confirms the final category and amount after reviewing the information you provide.
Should I post the redemption code in a public chat?
No. Keep the code private and share it only through the agreed support process after confirming who you are dealing with.
Do I need a purchase receipt for every quote?
Not for every quote. Keep a receipt if one is available because an issuer may request it when investigating activation or redemption problems.
