So you Got Yourself a Fancy-Pants Walmart eGift Card, Huh?
Congratulations, my friend! You've officially entered the elite club of folks who own a magical piece of plastic that unlocks a world of discounts, deals, and, of course, blue jeans. But before you go sprinting down the aisles like a sugar-fueled toddler, let's break down the slightly-less-magical-but-still-important details of using your Walmart eGift Card in-store.
How To Use Walmart Egift Card In Store |
Step 1: The Great Digital Dig (or, How to Find Your Secret Code)
This might sound like something out of a spy novel, but it's actually quite simple. The gift card number and PIN you need to use your eGift Card are hiding somewhere in the digital wilderness. Fear not, adventurer! They're usually found in the email you received when the card was purchased or on the website where you bought it yourself.
Pro Tip: If you're feeling extra cautious, write down this information and keep it in a safe place (like that sock drawer nobody ever looks in).
Tip: Take your time with each sentence.![]()
Step 2: Prepare for Battle (or, Just Head to Checkout)

Here's the deal: you have two options for using your eGift Card in the land of blue vests and bargain bins:

Option A: The Phone Phoner:
- Pull up your phone and open the email containing your eGift Card info.
- Show the cashier the barcode on your phone screen.
- Smile and say "Beep boop, I come in peace (and with the power of eGifts!)" (Optional, but highly encouraged).
Option B: The Old-School Paper Trail:
QuickTip: Pause at lists — they often summarize.![]()
- Print out the email containing your eGift Card info (or the website, if that's your jam).
- Highlight or circle the gift card number and PIN.
- Hand the glorious piece of paper to the cashier with a flourish (because even paper deserves a little drama).
Important Note: The cashier might ask you to enter the PIN on a keypad. Don't worry, it's just like entering your PIN at an ATM (but hopefully with less chance of someone yelling "Hey, you forgot your money!").
Step 3: Victory Lap (or, How to Not Leave Empty-Handed)
Once the cashier has scanned your eGift Card and deducted the purchase amount, you're officially a shopping champion!

Here are some additional things to keep in mind:
- You can use multiple eGift Cards in a single transaction (just like Pok�mon, gotta collect 'em all!).
- If your purchase exceeds the balance on your eGift Card, you can pay the remaining amount with another form of payment.
- You can check your eGift Card balance anytime online at https://www.walmart.com/account/giftcards/balance.
So there you have it, folks! Using your Walmart eGift Card in-store is a breeze. Now go forth and conquer those aisles, but remember to use your eGift Card responsibly (because nobody wants to be the friend who accidentally buys out the entire stock of pool floats).
