Quickly Check Your Target Gift Card Balance

We all love receiving Target gift cards — they’re flexible, and perfect for everything from groceries to gadgets. But before you head to the store or start shopping online, it’s important to check your Target gift card balance so you know exactly how much you have to spend. Whether it’s a physical card or an eGift, checking your balance is super easy and takes just a few seconds.

I got a $50 Target gift card for my birthday and was planning to use it during the big clearance sale. But I wasn’t sure if I’d already spent part of it, and I didn’t want to guess. I hopped online and within a minute, I found the Target Gift Card Balance Checker. I entered the card number and access code, and boom — the balance popped right up. I had $27.35 left. That saved me from getting embarrassed at checkout with an over-limit cart.

It was fast, accurate, and now it’s the first thing I do whenever I get a new card.
