Follow the guidelines below to keep your gift cards and funds safe from scammers.
Rule 1: Never Pay Bills with Gift Cards
Legitimate businesses, government agencies, and utility companies will never ask you to pay with a gift card. If someone demands payment via an Apple, Steam, or Amazon card, it is most likely a scam.
Rule 2: Trade Only on Trusted Platforms
Never send pictures of your gift cards or E-codes to strangers on social media, WhatsApp, or Telegram. Always use a secure platform like the SwegzApp to complete your trades safely. ⚠️ Warning: Once you send a picture of your gift card code or PIN to a scammer, they can instantly redeem it, and your money is gone permanently.
Rule 3: Do Not Scratch Until You Are Ready
If you have a physical gift card, keep the silver security panel on the back intact. Only scratch it off when you are immediately ready to upload it for a trade on the SwegzApp.
Rule 4: Ensure Your Cards Are Clear
When you are ready to trade, handle your card carefully to avoid ruining its value. Scratch gently: Do not scratch the PIN area too hard, or you might permanently erase the numbers. Take clear pictures: Ensure your camera lens is clean and the lighting is good. Show everything: Make sure all four corners of the card and the full code are clearly visible in the image.
Rule 5: Beware of "Too Good to Be True" Rates
If an unverified buyer outside of the app offers an exchange rate that seems significantly higher than the market average, it is usually a trap to steal your card. Stick to the verified and guaranteed rates inside the SwegzApp.
Rule 6: Keep Your Account Secure
Never share your SwegzApp login details, PIN, or password with anyone, including customer support. Our team will never ask for your password.
