Talk to the GIFQ team →REI gift cards on GIFQ are available from $15 to $1,000 per card. That range covers small peer recognition sends at the low end and substantial milestone or retention awards at the high end. Orders can mix denominations within a single batch.
Yes. REI gift cards are accepted both at REI retail locations and on REI.com. Recipients can apply them toward full-price or sale merchandise, gear rentals, and REI Adventures trip bookings, which extends the perceived value beyond a standard retail card.
REI gift cards issued via GIFQ are available for delivery to US recipients only. REI itself operates exclusively in the United States, so there is no cross-border redemption path for non-US employees or contractors.
REI's catalog covers equipment and apparel for running, hiking, cycling, yoga, and watersports—categories that align directly with physical activity incentives inside wellness reimbursement or points-based benefits programs. A $50–$150 REI card is a practical, low-admin alternative to managing reimbursement receipts for fitness spending. It signals intent without restricting recipients to a gym membership they may not use.
REI gift cards do not expire and carry no dormancy fees under REI's standard terms. For bulk senders, this removes the operational pressure of recipients needing to redeem within a promotional window and reduces support inquiries about lapsed card value.
Amazon and Visa cards offer broader redemption but no thematic signal—recipients can spend them on anything. An REI card communicates a specific intent around outdoor activity and wellness, which strengthens the reward's message when the program goal is encouraging physical health or recognizing employees with an active lifestyle. For audiences where outdoor participation is high, REI typically generates stronger recipient satisfaction scores than general-purpose cards of the same face value.
REI (Recreational Equipment, Inc.) is a consumer outdoor retailer and consumer cooperative founded in 1938, headquartered in Kent, Washington. It sells gear, apparel, and footwear for hiking, climbing, cycling, camping, paddling, and skiing, and operates more than 180 stores across the United States alongside a large e-commerce catalog. REI also runs an outdoor experiences business offering guided trips and skills classes. For B2B buyers, REI gift cards work well in several reward contexts: employee wellness programs tied to physical activity, sustainability-focused recognition initiatives, sales incentives for teams in industries where an active lifestyle skews high, and research panel payments where recipients value experiential spending over retail cash equivalents. The typical recipient is an adult in the US who spends time outdoors recreationally or aspires to—a profile that maps well onto engineering, healthcare, field sales, and tech workforces. Cards are issued as digital delivery or physical format, with denominations from $15 to $1,000, giving senders flexibility for both small-batch thank-you rewards and higher-value milestone payouts. REI's co-op structure and environmental advocacy also give the brand a reputational alignment that resonates in corporate cultures with stated ESG or wellness priorities.
