Using your eBay gift card
About eBay gift cards
Buying a discounted eBay gift card is the one saving that stacks on top of everything else: you still get sale prices, coupons and loyalty rewards, and the discount comes off the total at checkout. Cards on these marketplaces come from people who received them as gifts and would rather have the cash.
- Redeem or transfer the balance into your own eBay account as soon as the card arrives. That single habit removes nearly all of the risk of resale cards.
- CardCenter, CardCookie and Card Depot each offer a 100-day buyer guarantee. If a card arrives empty, you claim through the marketplace, not through eBay.

Questions and answers
What is the best eBay gift card discount right now?
The best available discount is 2.5% off from CardCenter. We compare 3 marketplaces for eBay and refresh prices throughout the day.
Is 2.5% off a good deal for eBay gift cards?
A 2.5% discount means a $100 eBay card costs about $97.50. Over the last 46 days eBay has averaged 2.4% off and peaked at 4.5%, so today is about its usual price. The typical online retail gift card is 6.4% off right now, which makes eBay a shallower discount than most of its category.
Is it safe to buy eBay gift cards from a resale marketplace?
CardCenter, CardCookie and Card Depot each offer a 100-day buyer guarantee. The safest habit is to redeem or transfer the balance to your own account as soon as the card arrives, which removes any risk of the original owner spending it later.
Do eBay gift cards expire?
Under US federal law (the CARD Act), the money on a gift card cannot expire for at least five years from the date the card was issued or last loaded - not the day you buy it on a resale site - and most major retailers do not expire balances at all. A card bought at a discount carries the same terms as one bought at face value.
