Best Buy, Nike, Target and Walmart
People hold value they can’t easily use.
Money you’ll never spend isn’t doing anybody any good.
Meet Sal. Sal saves you money at the register and helps you free stuck money.
Like a gift card you won’t spend. Companies profit from that friction. We route around it: you get cash, and someone shopping at that store pays less.
You pay

Add a card
Add a gift card you won’t spend. Then forget about it.
Someone shops there
When someone is about to spend at that store, we match them with your card. They get a discount. You get cash.
Or use it yourself
If you end up at that store, spend the card. Whichever happens first.
Four levels

Not open yetAdd a card. Get cash when someone uses it, or use it yourself.
3. Cash advance
PlannedUse your credit card like a cash advance or a balance transfer. It pays for someone else’s purchase, and their money comes back to you as cash. The aim is a few percent, not a cash advance fee plus 20%+ interest.

Why it should cost less
Gift card exchanges charge 20% or more. They buy cards up front and eat the loss when one turns out stolen or drained.
We never hold inventory. Nothing is bought until a buyer exists. A bad card fails at checkout, before we have paid for it. And the less work a card takes to use, the smaller the discount has to be.

Try the buyer’s side with a sample card. Nothing is charged.
