What you'll need

Each method asks for the same two things off the card:

Card number
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

  • 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 Taco Bell.

Where it's accepted

Frequently asked questions

Add items to your bag at tacobell.com, choose Gift Card at checkout, then enter the card number and PIN to apply it to your order.

Yes. Bring the physical card or show the e-gift barcode or wallet pass at the register, and the cashier applies it to your purchase.

Taco Bell usually applies one gift card per order. Use a card down to zero before starting the next, and check the payment step at checkout for the current limit.

If your order costs more than the card's balance, checkout asks for a second payment method to cover the difference.

Any unused balance stays on the Taco Bell gift card for next time. Cards aren't reloadable, so when one reaches zero you can buy another on Dyme at face value.

First check the balance to confirm there are funds and the card is active. Re-enter the number and PIN without spaces. A brand-new card can take a few hours to activate.
