Membership
iGift Platinum
A permanent card that does not expire, an @alias people can send gifts to without knowing your number, and a higher ceiling on what you can hold and move.
What you get
A card that does not expire
Your Platinum card is permanent and reloadable. Value you hold on it stays yours.
Your own @alias
Instead of sharing a phone number or email, share @yourname. Anyone can send to it; nobody learns anything else about you from it.
Higher limits
A raised ceiling on holding, transfer and withdrawal, because the identity checks behind Platinum are stronger.
Priority support
Your questions are answered ahead of the queue.
How the alias works
Worth reading before you pick one, because an alias is held, not owned.
- It is unique and it is yours while your membership runsTwelve months at a time, renewable.
- If membership lapses, you keep it for 90 more daysA grace period, so a missed renewal does not hand your name to someone else overnight.
- After that it returns to the poolAnd can be claimed by someone else. We tell you before this happens, not after.
- Some names are reservedNames that impersonate a brand, a public figure or iGift itself are not available. The check runs before you pay, never after.
Claim yours
Fig 12.2's four checks run as you type — and if one fails you are told which and why, not just that the name is unavailable.
Checking your membership…
Someone already has an @alias?
You can send to it without a Platinum membership of your own — you do not need to be a member to give to one. Start a gift and enter their alias where the recipient goes.
