Looking back at the last two years, we can all admit that it was a difficult one. But there’s plenty we learned — to love more, to care more, and value the things that are truly important. We learned to focus our energies on meaningful activities, and things that brought us joy. While the whole world did struggle, it has also been a time of immense resilience and of people helping each other.

Donatekart was started with the mission to encourage people to come together, to give more, and to do that on a trusted and transparent platform. In 2021, we want to take our mission a step forward and continue the spirit of giving with the Donatekart Gift Card — India’s FIRST donation gift card. It’s not just a regular gift card, it’s so much more meaningful and rewarding. It’s a gift that not only brings joy to the giver and receiver but also to someone in need.

Here’s all you need to know about this gift that can change someone’s life forever:

What is the Donatekart Gift Card?

This is a gift card with a heart. It brings people together for a greater cause and has the power to change someone’s life forever. This donation e-gift card can be sent to your friends and family for any occasion or celebration in a few simple steps. They can then redeem it on any of the campaigns they choose to support on Donatekart. This one simple act can have a meaningful impact on everyone involved.

Who is the Donatekart Gift Card for?

Everyone and anyone! Whether you’re an individual or a company, our gift card is the perfect gift for any occasion. Birthdays, anniversaries, weddings, festivals, or even a simple ‘thank you’ gift- we’ve got you covered!

How do I gift the Donatekart Gift Card to someone:

We’ve made this process hassle-free just for you. It takes just four simple steps to gift someone this gift card.

1. Go to our donatekart.com/giftcard
2. Select an occasion (you can even add a personal message!)
3. Choose the amount
4. Enter your loved one’s details and send it to them

In no time, they will receive the gift card in their email.

How do I redeem the gift card?

Once someone sends you the Donatekart Gift Card, you will receive an email with a coupon code. You can then use this coupon code to redeem the gift card while donating to ANY campaign of your choice on our platform — whether you want to support animals, or children’s education, or senior citizens, we have a number of causes for you to choose from that can create a big social impact. After choosing the cause closest to your heart, enter the coupon code during check-out, and it’s done!

What are the tax benefits of these gift cards?

If you’ve purchased the gift card for someone, you can claim tax benefits for your transaction. You will receive an 80G receipt for purchasing the Donatekart Gift Card. However, you cannot claim tax benefits if you’re the one redeeming the gift card. If you decide to donate more than your gift card value during check-out, you can claim tax benefits for that amount.

Let’s make that easier to understand — say you receive a gift card worth Rs. 500 from your mother, but you wish to donate an additional Rs. 600 on Donatekart to the campaign of your choice. So the total amount donated will be Rs. 1100 i.e Rs. 500 redeemed from the gift card, plus Rs. 600 paid in addition by you. You can then claim tax benefits for the Rs. 600 you donated in addition to your gift card. Whereas your mother can claim tax benefits for Rs. 500 spent while purchasing the gift card.

But here’s the most important aspect of this gift card — its impact. The Donatekart Gift Card is not just about giving someone a meaningful gift, it’s about making a difference in someone’s life, about encouraging people to give more, and about the feeling of knowing that your simple actions have given someone hope. Imagine giving your loved one a birthday gift card that they can use to help an abandoned puppy? or an anniversary gift card with which they can help an elderly person? the impact of the gift card is limitless! It’s simple, thoughtful, and makes everyone involved happy.

The Donatekart Gift Card is truly a gift card with a heart.

You can gift someone the joy of giving here.
