Check Discover Gift Card Balance

The Discover gift card is extremely flexible and allows you or the recipient to shop at millions of locations around the world and at online retailers. The cards are customizable, meaning that you can actually add the name of the gift recipient and a personal message to that person, and you can select one of many images to be included in the card design.

These gift cards are available in any dollar denominations between $20.00 and $500.00 and can be purchased online or at participating vendors. It is important to know the balance of your gift card because the merchants do not have this information.

Phone Number

  • If you would like to reach a customer service line to check the balance of your gift card, you can do so by calling toll free at 1-866-522-7026 24 hours each day, 7 days each week and entering the number of your gift card.

Online

  • To access your gift card balance online you can visit their website. Be sure that you have your card available when you visit this website as you will need to provide the card number in order to access the balance. Purchasing a customizable card online is usually about $3.95, with free shipping to the recipient.

Store Locator

  • There are no Discover stores at which to purchase the gift card, but some local merchants may sell the gift cards on behalf of this company.

When using your gift card it is important to remember that when you use an automated keypad that you select the “credit” option instead of “debit”, otherwise the transaction will be denied. Also, if you know that the purchase amount will be greater than the balance of the card, it is important to inform the cashier that you will be using two forms of payment before the transaction is processed.
