| How To Check Your Walmart Card Balance |
Step 1: Identify Your Walmart Card
Hold on, there are different types of Walmart cards? You betcha! Here's a quick breakdown:
- Walmart Gift Card: The classic plastic superstar, perfect for gifting or treating yo'self.
- Walmart MoneyCard: A reloadable prepaid debit card, ideal for budgeting and avoiding the "oops, I spent it all on gummy bears" situation.
- Walmart Visa Gift Card: Basically a Visa gift card with a fancy blue coat, usable anywhere Visa is accepted (but not outside the US, FYI).
Remember: Knowing your card type is crucial, as the balance checking methods differ slightly for each.
QuickTip: Re-reading helps retention.
Step 2: Embrace the Power of Technology (or your phone, at least)
- For the Gift Card Guru: Head over to the Walmart Gift Card Balance Page https://www.walmart.com/account/giftcards/balance and enter your 16-digit card number and PIN. Boom! Balance revealed. Just don't forget your PIN, unless you enjoy playing detective with customer service.
- For the MoneyCard Master: Download the Walmart MoneyCard App and log in with your account details. Your balance will be staring you right in the face, clear as day (unless your phone screen is cracked, then that might be a problem).
- For the Visa Gift Card VIP: These cards share the same balance checking methods as regular Visa gift cards. You can usually check your balance online through the card issuer's website or by calling the number on the back of your card.
Bonus Tip: If you're feeling fancy, some MoneyCards allow you to text "BAL Last4" to 96411 (with "Last4" being the last 4 digits of your card number) to receive your balance via text message. How cool is that?
Tip: Focus more on ideas, less on words.
Step 3: Channel your inner Indiana Jones (but at Walmart)
Feeling old school? No problem! Head to your nearest Walmart and approach a friendly customer service representative. Politely ask them to check your balance, and voila! They'll be happy to help (as long as you don't ask them to explain the difference between organic kale and regular kale).
QuickTip: Skip distractions — focus on the words.

Remember: Bring your ID and the actual card for verification purposes. Nobody wants to be accused of trying to spend someone else's "Star Wars" themed gift card.
QuickTip: Return to sections that felt unclear.
And finally, a word to the wise:
- Keep your card in a safe place (like your wallet, not the bottom of your cereal box).
- Memorize your PIN, or write it down somewhere secure (not on a sticky note stuck to your fridge).
- Check your balance regularly to avoid any "oh no, I can't afford this giant bag of gummy bears" moments at checkout.
With these tips in tow, you'll be a Walmart card balance checking champion in no time! Now go forth and conquer the aisles, but remember, responsible spending is always in fashion.
