UniVoucher Review 2026: Crypto Gift Cards Redeemed by Secret Code

UniVoucher is a crypto gift card protocol. Its homepage describes it as a decentralized way to create and redeem gift cards in ETH or ERC20 tokens across major EVM networks, including Ethereum, Base, BNB Chain, Polygon, Arbitrum, Optimism and Avalanche.

The product is built around a card ID and a secret code. A creator funds a card and shares the details with a recipient, who redeems it on the site. The homepage says no signup is required and that users only need to connect a wallet.

The project has an ecosystem around the core product. Third-party marketplaces such as G2A, Kinguin and BuySellVouchers list UniVoucher cards, a WooCommerce plugin lets online stores sell them, and a gasless redemption service is described for Base. Tracking data shows about $198 in total value locked across chains, which indicates very low activity at the time of review.

The project does not state a token, and public sources reviewed do not name the team behind it.

A UniVoucher card is a record on a blockchain network that holds a value in ETH or an ERC20 token. When a card is created, the creator funds it on the chosen network and receives a card ID and a 20-character secret code in the format XXXXX-XXXXX-XXXXX-XXXXX.

The redemption step does not check who the recipient is. Anyone who enters the correct card ID and secret can claim the funds. This is the same principle as a physical gift card with a scratch-off code, which is why the homepage shows a scratch-to-reveal design. The secret is therefore the most important piece of information in the transaction.

Because the card lives on a public chain, its status and remaining balance can be checked on-chain. The homepage describes cards as active until they are redeemed or cancelled. Third-party marketplaces resell cards, and partners can integrate redemption into wallets and payment tools.

The homepage describes a 1% partner fee charged on every redemption transaction for integration partners such as wallets, exchanges, bridges and payment gateways. Creation partners, including online stores and plugin developers, set their own revenue, which the homepage describes as unlimited.

The protocol's own fee for creating or funding a card is not published in the materials reviewed. Users would see network gas costs on the chain they choose, and resellers on third-party marketplaces may add their own prices and fees.

Smart-contract risk is the main concern. The homepage names two audit firms, SafetyBytes and Valves Security, but does not summarise their findings, and tracking data lists no audits. Read the audit reports yourself and do not rely on the names alone.

Custody is non-custodial in the sense that funds sit in on-chain contracts rather than with a company. The counterparty risk is the card secret itself: the protocol cannot reverse a redemption, and a leaked code can be used by whoever sees it. Third-party marketplaces that resell cards carry their own risks, including refund and identity terms, which are set by those sellers.

The homepage does not describe a licence or regulatory status, and the project does not establish how the project is treated under local rules. Crypto gift cards may be restricted or treated differently depending on where you live, so check the rules that apply to you. This is not a gambling product, and no age or identity checks are described.

UniVoucher is for people who want to send a crypto gift to someone who does not have an exchange account, and for online stores that want to sell crypto vouchers. It is less suited to large transfers or to users who need clear fees and a named team before committing funds.
