Using a Walmart Gift Card online at Walmart.com is simple:

1. Find a product you would like to purchase and place it in your cart.
2. When you check out, you will have the option to pay for your entire order or a portion of your order with a Walmart Gift Card.
3. Simply click "Use a Walmart Gift Card," and enter your card number and PIN.
4. Your card balance will be automatically applied to your order total.

If your order total is less than the amount on your Walmart Gift Card, the remaining amount will be available on your card for future purchases.

If your order total is more than the amount on your Walmart Gift Card, you will need to pay for the balance with additional Walmart Gift Cards or a credit card.

For most Gift Cards, there is no activation process required for using your Walmart Gift Card.

For Gift Cards that were purchased as a part of an order of 25 or more cards, or if the total value of the cards in the order was over $250, then the original purchaser will need to activate the cards before they can be used. An email with activation instructions is sent to the original purchaser.

A PIN is a personal identification number that is unique to your Walmart Gift Card. It is located on the back of your Walmart plastic Gift Card in the bottom right corner under the silver scratch-off area.

If your order total is less than the amount on your Walmart Gift Card, the remaining amount will be available on your card for future purchases.

If your order total is more than the amount on your Walmart Gift Card, you will need to pay for the balance with additional Walmart Gift Cards or a credit card.

Your card number and PIN are located on the back of your Walmart plastic Gift Card under the silver scratch-off area. If you have a Walmart eGift Card, your card number and PIN were located in the email we sent you when your Walmart eGift Card was first received.

Walmart Gift Cards are not returnable or refundable for cash except in states where required by law. If you decide to return merchandise that you purchased using your Walmart Gift Card, the refunded amount will be credited directly back to your Walmart Gift Card.

Please do not throw away your Walmart plastic Gift Card unless you are sure of your purchase, and make certain you save the Walmart eGift Card email.
