# How to Transfer Your Gift Cards

Once the gift card is purchased, the balance will live in the guest's wallet until transferred. From the guest's **[Account Settings](https://gotab.io/cust/account) **page, customers can hit** transfer** to send the gift card. When transferring, the customer can send their card via a link, QR code or via email. The transfer link is valid for 1 year.

To claim the gift card, you can send the recipient a copy link, a share QR that they can scan or via email. If you use the copy link or share QR, just be sure to have ***only*** the intended recipient clicks the generated link or scans the Share QR. Whoever clicks the link or scans the Share QR is the person now claiming the gift card. If the original person accidentally clicks the link that is generated, then they'll need to redo the process of transferring to the intended recipient.
