Card number
On the back of a physical card, or in your e-gift delivery email.
Access PIN
Scratch-off security PIN
Under the scratch-off panel on the back, or listed in the e-gift email.

Combining payment and partial balances

  • Gift card plus another payment: apply the gift card first, then cover the rest with a credit or debit card.
  • Partial balances: whatever you don't spend stays on the card for your next order.

If a card won't redeem

  • Declined or zero balance. Check the balance first to confirm there are funds and the card is active.
  • Not activated yet. A brand-new card can take a few hours to activate after purchase.
  • Wrong PIN. Re-enter the number and PIN without spaces, exactly as printed or shown in the gift card email.
  • Bought secondhand. Resale balances aren't guaranteed. Open a claim with the marketplace, not with Delta Air Lines.
