1. Organize the easy way
If you receive traditional plastic gift cards, you can stuff them in a wallet or purse to ensure they’re on hand when you need them. But don’t bother. Card Smash, a free, ad-supported, app can organize and store all your cards including loyalty, rewards, membership and gift cards, both plastic and digital, in one location.
Beyond helping you organize and manage your cards, Card Smash syncs across mobile devices and provides 100% offline functionality, which means in the event you have no internet connection, you can still access your digital stash.
This app is loaded with a host of features including secure encryption and backup, so you can rest easy.
