BestChoice Redemption Partners 2026: 178 Brands in the Classic Tier + 8 Themed Variants
BestChoice (cadooz) partner list 2026 — 178 brands in the Classic tier (as of 11/2025) plus 8 themed sub-variants (Style & Beauty, Home & Living, Streaming, and many more). €50/mo benefit-in-kind lever, splittable, 3-year validity.
Quick answer: BestChoice is the universal gift card from cadooz AG (Hamburg) — used primarily as an employee benefit-in-kind (€50/mo tax-free). In the Classic tier, ~178 brands are redeemable (from Apple to Zalando, without Amazon/MediaMarkt/Saturn). Plus 8 themed sub-variants (Style & Beauty, Home & Living, DIY & Garden, Streaming, and many more). Splittable, 3-year validity. The specific brand list per tier only becomes visible after entering your code on bestchoice.einloesen.de.
BestChoice is cadooz’s main B2B product and a leader in the German benefit-in-kind market. If your employer gives you €50/month in tax-free benefit-in-kind, it most likely runs through BestChoice. For private buyers, the tier variety is especially interesting — Classic is the largest variant, plus 8 themed sub-cards.

Benefit-in-Kind Lever for the Self-Employed
€50 BestChoice per month = €600 per year tax-free, if your tax advisor books the benefit-in-kind correctly. This is an established structure — and at the same time, you can earn additional miles on the purchase (e.g. via the M&M Vorteilswelt).

9 in total: Classic (the largest variant with ~178 brands) plus 8 themed sub-cards (Party & Birthday, Home & Living, Style & Beauty, DIY & Garden, Fit & Healthy, Home & Office, Kids & Play, Streaming & Entertainment). Earlier magazine mentions of a “Premium” variant with Amazon/MediaMarkt/Saturn are no longer accurate — Amazon is included in no BestChoice tier.

Can I split BestChoice?
Yes. You can split your balance across multiple partners.
How long is a BestChoice valid?
3 years after the end of the year of purchase.
What is the benefit-in-kind lever?
Employers may give their employees €50/month tax-free as a benefit-in-kind — e.g. as a BestChoice. This should not be confused with the €600 token-of-appreciation limit. Your tax advisor will confirm the correct booking for you.
Can I buy BestChoice with M&M miles?
Through the Miles-and-More Vorteilswelt, cadooz gift cards (including BestChoice Classic) are available seasonally with special earn rates. Check the current amount and duration directly in the M&M app / Vorteilswelt.
How does BestChoice differ from Wunschgutschein?
