I tried to buy a gift card and now it asks me to provide an address which I am not willing to do.
Like to know why Swagbucks is asking for address since it is an electronic gift card they won't be sending it to my address and they have clearly mentioned that it will be sent to "my gift card" section.
If any one had requested the gift card please do say what is the use of giving an address.

Flipkart stated in their terms that anyone who uses a gift voucher isn't their responsibility and also I have checked on their site and they ask only for voucher code and pin.
They do ask address to deliver product and don't think they were linked it with a gift voucher. Gift voucher can be used by anyone with any address. If not why called it a "gift"

It's stated in their t's and c's when you join. It's also the policy of just about any site that sends you money or gift codes. They want to verify it's you and not someone hijacking your page, for one thing. Did you give them your physical address when you enrolled? If not, they need to collect it now, before sending you anything, to ensure it's you and not another person.
I've been a member for years and have no problem with them knowing my physical address even though all I get are amazon e-codes when I redeem. They've never used it for any other purpose.
