How to check your Delta Air Lines gift card balance
Every method returns the same balance in real time. The online checker is fastest and works for physical and digital cards alike. New to Delta Air Lines cards? See our Delta Air Lines gift card buying guide.
- Go to the Delta Air Lines gift card balance page.
- Enter your card number and the access PIN.
- Select Check Balance. Your current balance shows on screen.
What you'll need
Every method asks for two things off the card:
If the balance looks wrong
- Reads $0 or "card not found." Re-enter the number without spaces and confirm the PIN. A brand-new card can take a few hours to activate.
- Lower than expected. A pending order can hold part of the balance, and recent returns take a few days to post back.
- Bought secondhand. Resale balances aren't guaranteed by Delta Air Lines. Open a claim with the marketplace, not with Delta Air Lines.
Using your remaining balance
Spend a partial balance the same way you'd spend the full card, across as many visits as you like:
- Online: enter the number and PIN at checkout on delta.com.
Balances don't expire and carry no fees. Cards aren't reloadable, so when one reaches zero, the simplest move is a new card. For every way to spend it, see how to use your Delta Air Lines gift card.
