Why give a gift card instead of a kit?
Because the right emergency kit depends on things only they know: how many people they're preparing for, where they live, how much storage space they have, and which emergencies they're most concerned about.
A gift card lets them make those choices for themselves while you're still giving them something useful they may have been meaning to take care of.
Who is it for?
Preparedness can be an especially thoughtful gift when someone's life or living situation is changing.
- A new homeowner preparing their own home for the first time.
- A college student or young adult living independently.
- A couple starting or growing a family.
- A parent or grandparent you'd like to help prepare for outages and storms.
- Someone who recently moved to an area with unfamiliar weather or emergency risks.
- That person who keeps saying, “I really need to get an emergency kit.”
Why can a little nudge help?
Emergency preparedness is easy to put off. There are a lot of choices, and it can be difficult to know where to start.
A gift card takes care of the cost while letting the recipient choose the kit that makes the most sense for their household.
You're not choosing their emergency plan for them. You're giving them a reason to finally make one.
What can it be used on?
Anything in the Gear Up Survival Kits store, including individual emergency kits, family kits, children's kits, power outage kits, hurricane and earthquake kits, urban kits, pet kits, and bundles.
They can use the gift card toward the kit or bundle that best fits their household and add anything else they need.
How does delivery work?
Choose the amount, enter the recipient's email, and send it right away or schedule it for a future date.
There's no shipping and nothing to wrap. The recipient receives the gift card by email and can use it toward purchases at Gear Up Survival Kits.
No expiration. No fees. Just preparedness, on their terms.
