Using gyft.com outside USA

[LogicalUnit]

Hi everyone,

Amazon.com does not accept Bitcoin, but gyft.com sells Amazon gift cards for Bitcoin, so there is a workaround.

However, when I went to sign up for gyft.com today, it told me it is only available for residents of USA.

I have access to a VPN provider that has servers in America. Has anyone been able to access gyft.com from places outside USA using this technique?

Many thanks

I just tried registering an account with my USA VPN, but it still wouldn't let me

Try using USA based VPS rather than VPN as they might have blocked known VPN servers accessing them. I haven't used this personally because i don't need to use gyft.com but i have seen some peoples using VPS to access them.

What country are you living in? There are other gift card providers in other countries. It's not just gyft.

No. I am unable to buy from gyft outside USA. I have tried to use a USA proxy but it failed too.

Even if you are able to get access to gyft, I wouldn't suggest doing it as they will very likely ban your account and not give you the funds. Just use a competitor site or buy on the forum through a trusted account.
