How to Check Apple Gift Card Balance Without Redeeming
If you’ve received an Apple gift card—whether it’s from a friend, a giveaway, or a purchase—and you want to know the balance on the card without redeeming it, you’re not alone. Many people are cautious about redeeming a card before confirming its value, especially if they plan to sell or trade it later.
Fortunately, Apple provides a few simple ways to check your gift card balance without applying it to your Apple ID account. In this blog post, we’ll walk you through the various methods available.
Method 1: Use the Official Apple Balance Check Page
The most reliable and straightforward method is to use Apple’s official website.
Step-by-Step:
-
Log in with your Apple ID.
-
Enter the 16-digit gift card code on the back of the card (you might need to scratch off a label to see it).
-
Click on “Check Balance.”
✅ Note: This will not redeem your card. It only displays the balance associated with the card.
Method 2: Contact Apple Support
If you don’t want to log in with your Apple ID, another way is to contact Apple Support directly.
How:
-
Visit getsupport.apple.com
-
Choose “Apple ID” > “Other Apple ID Topics” > “Gift Cards & Codes”
-
Request to chat or speak with a representative
-
Provide them with the gift card code and ask for the balance
They’ll usually verify the code and let you know the available balance without redeeming the card.
Method 3: Use the Apple Store App
If you’re using an iPhone or iPad, the Apple Store app also allows you to check the balance:
-
Open the Apple Store app (download it if you don’t have it).
-
Tap on your profile icon.
-
Select “Redeem Gift Card or Code.”
-
Use your camera to scan the card or enter the code manually.
-
It will show the card balance before redemption, allowing you to cancel or proceed.
