The study measures purchase intentions. Photo: ThinkNow Gift cards appear in the holiday shopping plans of 58.9% of US adults in [ThinkNow](https://giftcard.news/company/thinknow/)'s new consumer study, up from 48% in the research firm's 2023 comparison. The September 21 report points to a stronger stated appetite for gift cards ahead of the 2026 holiday season. The change is 10.9 percentage points across those two survey comparisons. It is not an estimate of annual sales growth or proof that consumers have already spent more on cards. ThinkNow's accompanying analysis, written by [Roy Eduardo Kokoyachuk](https://giftcard.news/person/roy-eduardo-kokoyachuk/), places gift cards among the most frequently planned purchases. For issuers and distributors, that creates a demand signal to weigh alongside eventual transaction data, the value loaded per card and the channels shoppers actually use. ## A national sample with different gift-card intentions The firm says its online study surveyed 1,500 US adults aged 18 or older. The sample included 500 Hispanic respondents, 250 Black respondents, 250 Asian respondents and 500 non-Hispanic White respondents. Results were weighted to represent the US adult population. Gift-card purchase intentions varied across the groups for which the published summary provides figures: 64.3% among non-Hispanic White respondents, 48.0% among Hispanic respondents and 44.5% among Black respondents. The accessible summary does not provide an equivalent gift-card figure for Asian respondents.

Source ThinkNow, September 21, 2026 ThinkNow online survey of 1,500 U.S. adults 18+, including 500 Hispanic, 250 Black, 250 Asian and 500 non-Hispanic White respondents; results weighted to represent the U.S. adult population. The public primary summary does not disclose fieldwork dates, recruitment, detailed weights, full questionnaire or margin of error. Baseline and subgroup bars have different denominators and are not additive. The accessible summary omits the Asian subgroup’s gift-card figure; absence is not zero.

They do not establish the amounts each group expects to load onto cards, the number of cards per buyer or the eventual revenue contribution of a group. ## Strong card interest within a cautious spending picture The broader holiday results contain signs of restraint. ThinkNow reports that 23% plan to spend more overall, compared with 25% in its 2023 comparison, while 23.3% plan to spend less this year. A rise in gift-card purchase intentions can therefore coexist with pressure on the overall holiday budget.

The public primary summary does not disclose fieldwork dates, recruitment, detailed weights, full questionnaire or margin of error. These two published categories do not form the full distribution; no remainder is reconstructed. The comparison concerns all holiday spending, not card-specific budgets or actual purchases.

That is a general holiday timing result, rather than a separate measure of when gift cards will be bought or redeemed.

The public primary summary does not disclose fieldwork dates, recruitment, detailed weights, full questionnaire or margin of error. The current summary does not supply the 2023 sample, detailed weighting, questionnaire or matching fieldwork dates, so methodological comparability cannot be fully audited. These are two published comparison points, not an annual time series. They do not identify when gift cards specifically will be purchased, delivered or redeemed, and do not establish actual 2026 transactions.

It also does not identify a card-specific spending forecast. Those limits matter when translating the findings into commercial expectations: the study records plans, while sales, loaded value and redemption behavior still require observation. The disclosed results nevertheless put gift cards prominently in the intended holiday purchase mix. Their eventual market significance will depend on how much of that stated interest becomes completed orders. ## In this article ### Companies * [ThinkNow](https://giftcard.news/company/thinknow/) ### People * [Roy Eduardo Kokoyachuk](https://giftcard.news/person/roy-eduardo-kokoyachuk/) ### Sources and documents * [Original holiday shopping study findings and sample description](https://thinknow.com/blog/holiday-shopping-2026-hispanic-shoppers-plan-to-spend-more-and-ai-joins-the-gift-hunt/?utm%5Fsource=giftcard.news&utm%5Fcampaign=giftcard.news) — ThinkNow * [September 21 original study report](https://thinknow.com/reports/holiday-shopping-2026-report/?utm%5Fsource=giftcard.news&utm%5Fcampaign=giftcard.news) — ThinkNow Share [ ](https://x.com/intent/post?url=https%3A%2F%2Fgiftcard.news%2Fresearch-trends%2Fthinknow-us-holiday-gift-card-purchase-intentions-2026%2F%3Futm%5Fsource%3Dx%26utm%5Fmedium%3Dsocial&text=Gift+cards+feature+in+58.9%25+of+US+holiday+purchase+plans%2C+ThinkNow+finds&utm%5Fsource=giftcard.news&utm%5Fcampaign=giftcard.news "X") [ ](https://www.linkedin.com/sharing/share-offsite/?url=https%3A%2F%2Fgiftcard.news%2Fresearch-trends%2Fthinknow-us-holiday-gift-card-purchase-intentions-2026%2F%3Futm%5Fsource%3Dlinkedin%26utm%5Fmedium%3Dsocial&utm%5Fsource=giftcard.news&utm%5Fcampaign=giftcard.news "LinkedIn") [ ](https://wa.me/?text=Gift+cards+feature+in+58.9%25+of+US+holiday+purchase+plans%2C+ThinkNow+finds+https%3A%2F%2Fgiftcard.news%2Fresearch-trends%2Fthinknow-us-holiday-gift-card-purchase-intentions-2026%2F%3Futm%5Fsource%3Dwhatsapp%26utm%5Fmedium%3Dsocial&utm%5Fsource=giftcard.news&utm%5Fcampaign=giftcard.news "WhatsApp") ![Portrait of Maya Bennett](https://giftcard.news/images/variants/v1/maya-bennett-editorial-portrait-w320.webp) About the author ## [Maya Bennett](https://giftcard.news/author/maya-bennett/) Journalist — Rewards & Loyalty Maya Bennett covers customer loyalty, employee rewards and incentive programmes for Gift Card News.
