Quick answer: To check an Amazon gift card balance, sign in to Amazon, go to Your Account, and select 'Gift card balance.' Any card you've already redeemed shows there. For an unredeemed card, the amount is printed on the card or in the email — apply it to your account to see the combined balance.

Ways to Check Your Amazon Gift Card Balance

Online: Go to amazon.com → Your Account → Gift Card Balance. Your redeemed balance is displayed and applied automatically at checkout.

Redeem a new card: Choose 'Redeem a Gift Card,' enter the claim code, and the value is added to your Amazon balance.

Mobile app: Open the Amazon app → Menu → Account → Gift Cards to view your balance.

What You'll Need

You'll need your Amazon login. To redeem a physical card, scratch the panel on the back to reveal the claim code; for an eGift card, the code is in the email.

Tips & Common Issues

Amazon balances can't be transferred back to a card once redeemed — they stay on your account. If a code says 'already redeemed,' contact Amazon support with the claim code. Amazon gift card funds don't expire.
