CardDeals Live Gift Card Deals tools (3)

write = sends, deletes, buys or posts
  • get_gift_card_dealsFree

    Use this when the user asks for complete current provider details for one exact gift-card brand. Accepts a brand slug, product ID such as brand:starbucks, or exact brand name. Do not use it for broad category discovery. Returns no purchase action—only current provider or CardDeals checkout links.

  • lookup_gift_card_dealsFree

    Use this when the user supplies up to 10 exact CardDeals product IDs or brand slugs to compare in one call. Product IDs use the form brand:starbucks. Do not use it for fuzzy discovery; use search_gift_card_deals instead. Unknown IDs are returned in not_found instead of being guessed.

  • search_gift_card_dealsFree

    Use this when the user wants to discover or compare current U.S. gift-card discounts across brands or within a category. Returns structured provider offers and current destination links. Do not use it for an exact single brand when get_gift_card_deals can return the complete provider set.
