How to check your Marshalls gift card balance online

The fastest way to check your Marshalls gift card balance is through the Marshalls website. Go to marshalls.com, scroll to the bottom of the page, and look for a link labeled "Gift Card Balance" or "Check Gift Card Balance" — it's usually in the footer section under customer service. Click it, enter your 16-digit gift card number and the 4-digit PIN on the back of the card, then click "Check Balance." Your remaining balance appears instantly.

You don't need to create a Marshalls account or log in to check the balance. The system only needs the card number and PIN, which takes about 30 seconds total. If you can't find the link on the website, try searching "Marshalls gift card balance" in your browser — the direct page often appears in search results and works the same way.

  • In-store associates can scan your gift card at any Marshalls register to show you the balance on the receipt.

Checking your balance by phone

If you prefer not to use the website, call Marshalls customer service at 1-800-MARSHALLS (1-800-627-7425). A representative will ask for your gift card number and can tell you the balance over the phone. This method works during business hours, which vary but typically run from early morning to evening, seven days a week.

Have your card in front of you when you call so you can read the 16-digit number quickly. The call usually takes less than five minutes. If you're calling from outside the United States, check the Marshalls website for the international customer service number.

Checking your balance in a Marshalls store

Walk into any Marshalls location and ask an associate at the register to scan your gift card. They will run it through their system and can print the balance on your receipt or simply tell you the amount. This method works whether you're making a purchase or just checking the balance.

You don't need to buy anything — associates routinely check balances for customers. If the store is busy, you may wait a few minutes, but the process itself takes seconds once an associate is available.

What to do if you can't find your card number

The 16-digit gift card number is printed on the front of a physical card. If the numbers are faded or worn, try holding the card under bright light or at an angle to read it. The 4-digit PIN is on the back, usually near the signature strip.

If the card is damaged and you genuinely cannot read either number, contact Marshalls customer service by phone. Explain the situation and provide any information you have — such as the approximate purchase date or the name of the person who gave you the card. A representative may be able to look up the card in their system, though this process is slower than using the card number directly.

Digital gift cards and email delivery

If someone sent you a Marshalls gift card by email, the email will contain a code or a link to view your balance. Click the link in the email or copy the code into the balance checker on the Marshalls website. Digital gift cards work the same way as physical cards — you enter the code and PIN to see what's left.

Digital gift cards can be used online at marshalls.com or in stores by showing the code on your phone at checkout. The balance checker works for both formats.

Understanding gift card expiration and fees

Marshalls gift cards do not expire as long as there is a balance remaining on the card. Once the balance reaches zero, the card is no longer usable, but there is no time limit on when you must spend the money.

Marshalls does not charge inactivity fees or monthly maintenance fees on gift cards. The only way your balance decreases is if you use the card to make a purchase. If your balance seems lower than expected, check your recent receipts or contact customer service to review transaction history.

Frequently Asked Questions

Can I check my Marshalls gift card balance without the PIN?

No. The Marshalls website balance checker requires both the 16-digit card number and the 4-digit PIN. However, you can call customer service or visit a store, and they may be able to look up the balance with just the card number.

What if the balance checker says my card number is invalid?

Double-check that you entered all 16 digits correctly and that the PIN is the 4-digit number on the back of the card, not the expiration date. If you're still getting an error, the card may not have been activated yet, or there may be a technical issue. Call customer service to confirm the card is active.

Can I use my Marshalls gift card online at marshalls.com?

Yes. During checkout, enter your gift card number and PIN in the payment section. The balance will be applied to your order. If your purchase is more than the card balance, you can pay the difference with another payment method.

Is there a way to see my transaction history?

The online balance checker only shows your current balance, not past purchases. Call customer service with your card number, and a representative can review recent transactions if you need that information.
