How to check your NHL Shop gift card balance
Every method returns the same balance in real time. The online checker is fastest and works for physical and e-gift cards alike. New to NHL Shop cards? See our NHL Shop gift card buying guide.
- Go to the NHL Shop 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 NHL Shop. Open a claim with the marketplace, not with NHL Shop.
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 nhlshop.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 NHL Shop gift card.
