Card Information

What information do I need to check my amex gift card balance?

+

You need three pieces of information: your 15-digit card number (found on the front), the 4-digit security code (CVV), and the expiry date (MM/YY format).

Where can I find my card number and security code?

+

Your 15-digit card number is printed on the front of your Amex gift card. The 4-digit security code (CVV) is also located on the front of the card, usually above the card number.

My card doesn't have a security code. What should I do?

+

All American Express gift cards have a 4-digit security code. If you can't find it, look carefully on the front of your card. If it's worn off or damaged, contact American Express customer service for assistance.

Can I check the balance of an expired Amex gift card?

+

You can attempt to check the balance, but expired cards typically cannot be used for purchases. Contact American Express directly if you have questions about an expired card.

Technical Support

What if I get an error when checking my balance?

+

Double-check that you've entered your card information correctly. If you continue to experience issues, the card may be inactive, expired, or there may be a temporary system issue. Contact our support team for assistance.

Why does it say my card is invalid?

This usually means the card number, security code, or expiry date was entered incorrectly. Verify all information and try again. If the problem persists, the card may not be activated or may be expired.
