What a Turo gift card gets you
The credit applies to the whole trip total — the daily rate plus Turo's protection plans, young-driver and delivery fees, and extras — not just the base car price, so it offsets more of a booking than people expect. It is account credit, not a payment card, so the recipient adds it to their Turo balance and it draws down automatically on their next eligible trip.
one format:
- E-gift card: Emailed within minutes; the recipient confirms a short redemption step, then the credit lands in their Turo account. $25 to $200 via Dyme.
Multiple Turo gift cards can be redeemed to one account; the combined credit applies across future trips until used up.

Can I get a Turo gift card at a discount?
Yes, but not through Dyme. Dyme sells Turo e-gift cards at face value; the value-add is Dyme Miles and instant paperless delivery. The discount channels are:
- Secondary marketplaces (Raise, CardCash). Resold Turo cards from third parties, typically a few percent below face value when in stock. Verify the balance before redeeming, since secondary sellers occasionally list cards with partial balances.
- Turo promo codes and first-trip credit. Turo runs new-guest promo codes and occasional credits that lower the trip total a gift card has to cover. These apply at booking and stack on top of using account credit.
- Host weekly and monthly discounts. Many Turo hosts set lower daily rates for longer bookings, so a gift card's credit stretches further on a multi-day or weekly trip than on a single day.
The bigger combined return comes from the rewards layer below: your credit card and Dyme Miles on the purchase, on top of any booking promo the recipient applies.

Frequently asked questions
What does a Turo gift card pay for?＋
It applies as account credit toward a trip's total on Turo — the daily rate plus protection plans, fees, and extras — booked directly from a local host.
What denominations are available?＋
Generally $25 to $500 through turo.com and $25 to $200 through Dyme, in set increments.
Do Turo gift cards expire?＋
No. Turo gift cards do not expire. Once added to an account, the credit stays available until it is used on trips.
How does a recipient redeem a Turo gift card?＋
They add the card's code to their Turo account, where it becomes trip credit. The credit applies automatically to an eligible booking until the balance runs out.
Is there a physical Turo gift card?＋
No. Turo gift cards are digital only — delivered by email and redeemed as account credit. There is no plastic card.
Can I check my Turo gift card balance?＋
Yes. Once the credit is added to a Turo account, the available balance shows in the account's payment or credits section.
Can I use more than one Turo gift card?＋
Yes. Multiple gift cards can be redeemed to one Turo account, and the combined credit applies across future trips until used up.
Can I combine a gift card with a Turo promo code?＋
Yes. Account credit covers part of the trip total while a promo code lowers the booking price, so the two stack on the same trip.
Can I sell a Turo gift card I don't need?＋
Yes. Secondary marketplaces like Raise and CardCash buy unwanted gift cards, paying a percentage of face value based on demand. List with the card number and balance for verification.
Are e-gift cards delivered instantly?＋
Usually within 1 to 60 minutes. Gmail's Promotions filter occasionally delays delivery — check there if you don't see it arrive.
