Redeem an eGift Card
When you’re ready to use your eGift Card with the Square seller, simply provide the staff member with the 16-digit eGift Card number to process the payment. This can be found in the original email you received containing your eGift Card. If you're using an iOS device, you can also add the eGift Card to your Apple Wallet and get a quick glimpse of the balance.
Note: If you did not receive the email with the eGift card, check your junk mail and spam folders. If you still can’t find the email or you no longer have access to the email inbox the eGift card was sent, contact the Square seller and ask for them to resend the eGift card to a different email address. Square sellers can resend eGift cards and update recipient email addresses via their eGift Card Dashboard.
If you’ve added your phone number via your eGift Cards details page, you can also give the staff member your email address or phone number at checkout to search for your eGift Card.
Manage your eGift Cards
You can check your current gift card balance online by clicking View your Gift Card from your original eGift Card email, or you can tap the Manage your Square gift cards link from your eGift Card to manage all of your gift cards from your Square profile.
From your Square profile, click the gift card and select View gift card details to load funds, view the balance, view additional redemption details, or transfer the balance.
To reload your gift card:
