Built by Engineers
Who Felt the Pain
MyCardLiaison started when our founders spent three months integrating 14 different gift card networks for a retail client — and decided there had to be a better way.
Making Gift Card Data Universally Accessible
Gift cards represent over $700 billion in global transactions annually, yet the infrastructure for checking, validating, and analysing them remains fragmented, unreliable, and developer-hostile. We're changing that — one API call at a time.
Every business that handles gift cards deserves reliable, fast, and secure access to card data — regardless of whether they have the budget for a team of network integrators.
What We Stand For
Developer First
We build every feature by asking what a developer integrating at 2am needs. Documentation, error messages, and SDKs are first-class products.
Security Always
Card data is sensitive. We treat security not as a feature but as a foundation — PCI DSS, SOC 2, end-to-end encryption by default.
Reliability is a Promise
99.99% uptime isn't a marketing claim — it's an SLA backed by financial credits if we miss it. Reliability is non-negotiable.
AI Should Earn its Seat
We don't add AI for the sake of it. Our fraud model is deployed because it measurably improves outcomes for our customers.
Global by Default
Gift cards are global. Our infrastructure, network coverage, and currency support are built for a world that doesn't stop at borders.
Transparent & Honest
Our status page is always public. When we have incidents, we post thorough postmortems. Customers deserve the truth.
