Can you gift someone money in dollars on a card?

Yes, between Guarapay cards: you send money from your dollar balance to the person's card, and they use it right away for online purchases wherever Visa cards are accepted. The gift is the balance, not a physical card.

That beats handing over your card details: each person has their own card, their own spending cap and their own history in the app.

How do I send the dollar gift, step by step?

  1. Ask the person to open the Guarapay app or the Telegram mini app @guarapay_bot and issue a virtual card; it takes about two minutes.
  2. Ask for their Telegram @username.
  3. Top up your balance with the gift amount plus the top-up fee, with USDT or a Visa or Mastercard bank card in your own name.
  4. In the app open the transfer and enter the person's @username.
  5. Type the amount, check the recipient and confirm.
  6. The money reaches their card right away, with no transfer fee.

How much does it cost to gift money on a dollar card?

  • Card-to-card transfer between Guarapay cards: free and instant.
  • Top-up fee on your balance: 2% with USDT on Standard and 1% on Premium; 5% with a bank card on both plans.
  • Card issue, once, if the person does not have one yet: US$ 10 on Standard or US$ 100 on Premium; no monthly fee.
  • When the person spends, each approved purchase costs US$ 0.25, taken from their balance.
  • Monthly spending limit of each card: US$ 10,000 on Standard and US$ 100,000 on Premium.

What gifts can you pay for with the dollar balance?

The card works online wherever Visa cards are accepted, but some merchants may decline cards under their own rules.

  • A streaming, music or study subscription.
  • Credit for a game or an app store.
  • An online course or a work tool.
  • A purchase in an international shop that only takes dollars.

What should I know before sending the gift?

  • The person needs a Guarapay card; without one the transfer cannot arrive.
  • Check the @username before confirming, because the money goes to the recipient you typed.
  • The money leaves your balance, so top up first.
  • For a gift to a child or to someone without Telegram, agree beforehand who creates the account.
