At the time, it was the first gift card comparison site.[8] For most of the website's early years, Gift Card Granny was run solely by Luke Knowles.[2] In 2013, the website was acquired by internet entrepreneur and founder of GiftCards.com, Jason Wolfe, and his company, Wolfe.com. After GiftCards.com was acquired in early 2016 by Blackhawk Network Holdings, Wolfe became Gift Card Granny's CEO.[2] In December 2016, Wolfe moved the company to Green Tree, Pennsylvania (a Pittsburgh suburb) to the same facility that had earlier housed GiftCards.com. The company currently employs 39 people.[2][9] OperationGift Card Granny is a gift card website that serves as a listing aggregator for discounted gift cards.[4][10] It partners with a variety of discount gift card companies and merchants.[3][11] Users can search for specific gift cards from specific stores and will be presented with discounted prices from Gift Card Granny partners.
