    Abstract: A gift box for gift cards provides a presentation appearing like a gift box for other products, such as jewelry, having strength, three full dimensions, color, quality, and design options. It can receive decorations such as ribbons and bows, greeting cards such as a to/from card, and the like. The box requires no assembly of components, as it comes in a single, integrated whole, including all the parts of the box and its lid, as well as an interior panel presenting the gift, such as a gift card that operates as a debit card with a pre-loaded amount of purchasing value.

  • Publication number: 20140027500
    Abstract: A gift containment system for gift cards provides a presentation appearing like gift boxes, books, portfolios, and the like used for other high value products, such as jewelry. With strength, durability, three full dimensions, colors, quality, and design options, it can receive decorations, ribbons, and bows, a to/from card, and the like. Requiring no assembly of components, a single, integrated system includes all parts and configures simply. The system may present a gift card, a debit card pre-loaded with a purchased value. Various alternative embodiments of containers are configured to fit in the same carded or bagged footprint on hangers such that their locations are arbitrarily interchangeable without altering spacing between hanger rods (e.g., pegs) on retail racks.
