What a Virgin Experience gift card gets you
This isn't a single booked experience — it's an open-value card the recipient applies to any experience in the Virgin Experience Gifts catalog, so they choose the activity, date, and location themselves. Redemption happens on the Virgin Experience Gifts website, where the balance covers the experience price and any difference is paid or left as remaining value. The card is digital, so there's nothing to mail.
one format:
- E-gift card: Emailed within minutes, redeemed at checkout on the Virgin Experience Gifts site. $10 to $500 via virginexperiencegifts.com; $25 to $200 via Dyme.
You can apply more than one Virgin Experience gift card toward a single experience if the price exceeds one card's value; combine the codes at checkout.

Can I get a Virgin Experience gift card at a discount?
Yes, but not through Dyme. Dyme sells Virgin Experience e-gift cards at face value; the value-add is Dyme Miles and instant delivery, not a face-value discount. The discount channels are:
- Virgin Experience Gifts sales and promo codes. The site runs frequent seasonal sales, sitewide promo codes, and holiday events that cut the price of individual experiences — applied at checkout, where a gift card can still pay the balance.
- Email and first-order offers. Signing up for emails typically unlocks a percentage-off code for a first purchase, which applies to the experience price and stacks with a gift-card payment.
- Secondary marketplaces. Resale of Virgin Experience cards on third-party marketplaces is thin and inconsistent compared with big-box brands. If you find one, verify the balance and current redemption terms before buying.
The bigger combined return comes from the rewards stack below: your credit card and Dyme Miles on the purchase. Most buyers leave that money on the table.
How to stack rewards
Two rewards programs fire on a single Virgin Experience gift card purchase through Dyme.
