myTab.co is a travel gift card where you can save travel cash and shout ‘put it on myTab’ so friends & family contribute towards your trip. Then simply redeem your funds towards travel, all within the website. It’s faster, easier and no stress compared to hunting for the lowest price since customers are already travel-cash rich. And, since myTab.co is running a gift card platform, they can negotiate exclusive deals on behalf of their customers. The founder started the company seven years ago to help address the biggest pain in travel – price fluctuation. With gifted or saved funds, the customer isn’t focusing on the price because they are already cash-rich so the experience shifts to a happier action.
