CardWarden
Store every loyalty and gift card in one encrypted wallet. Check balances in-app, sync across all your devices. Share with family when you choose.
Invite household members to a shared pocket when you want to. Everyone gets live barcodes and balances without screenshots in group chat. Works great solo. Even better together.
Migrating from Stocard, Klarna, or another wallet? Screenshot your cards and import them in one batch. On-device OCR matches templates and colors, so you are not retyping every barcode. Nothing leaves your phone.
Log remaining value and check balances using the retailer's own balance checker, right inside the app. Know exactly how much is left before you checkout.
Encrypted backup keeps everything in sync across iPhone, Android, and your watch. Show barcodes at the register even without signal. Replace a phone without starting over.
Insights show total gift card value, cards expiring soon, and how your collection breaks down by store. Stop letting balances go unused in a drawer or email thread.
Card numbers, PINs, and notes are encrypted on your device before upload. Lock the app with PIN or biometrics. A breach on our end exposes only unreadable ciphertext. Read our Security White Paper.

Keep it simple
Loyalty apps got complicated. Cards became secondary. Feeds appeared. Advertisements appeared. Payment products appeared. Data collection increased. The original purpose got lost.
CardWarden is a return to simplicity from thesimplest.net. Store your cards once. Share them securely with the people you trust. Checkout offline. Nothing else in the way.
Business model
Most apps make money from your information. We don’t. We will never sell your personal information, your shopping behavior, or your loyalty card data. We will never build advertising profiles. We will never trade privacy for revenue.
One-time fee. Local encryption on your device. No account, no cloud features, so no recurring server bill for that user.
Subscription, because encrypted multi-device sync has ongoing costs. Backup and live sync across your devices.
One subscription for the whole household with shared pockets, roles, and Kids Mode. Same sync infrastructure, shared fairly.
How it works
CardWarden turns your loyalty cards and gift cards into a digital wallet on iPhone, Android, Apple Watch, and Wear OS.
Scan the barcode with your camera, or pick from 400+ retailer templates. Add loyalty cards, gift cards, membership passes, and vouchers in seconds.
Your cards follow you to your phone, tablet, and watch. Encrypted cloud backup keeps everything safe when you upgrade or replace a device.
Verify gift card balances with the built-in retailer checker, then show the barcode at the register, even without signal.
When you are ready, invite household members to a family pocket. Everyone gets the same cards with live barcodes and balances. No screenshots needed.
