IKEA Gift Card Balance: How to Check It
How to check an IKEA gift or refund card balance online with your account login, by phone, or in the returns area of any IKEA store.
Three Ways to Check Your IKEA Balance
- Online — visit the official balance checker. You'll typically need the card number and the CVV/security code from the back of the card.
- Phone — call 1-888-888-4532 and follow the automated prompts. Have your card number ready.
- In-store — Go to the returns area and speak to a co-worker.
Where to Buy IKEA Gift Cards
Official source: IKEA sells gift cards directly through IKEA.com and in person at IKEA store checkout counters, in denominations that can go as low as $5 and up to $1,000.
In-store: Since IKEA only operates a limited number of locations across the US, picking one up in person only works if you live near one of its stores.
Online marketplaces: Amazon carries IKEA gift cards, including both physical and eGift card versions in various denominations.
Third-party sellers: Sites like Giftcards.com and CardDepot also offer IKEA gift cards, sometimes at a discount, as an alternative to buying directly from IKEA.
Best bet: For most shoppers, ordering directly from IKEA online is the simplest and safest option since availability at other outlets can vary.
Terms & Expiration Notes
Funds are reserved immediately when a gift card is added to an online cart, even if checkout isn't completed; the reserved amount can take up to 1 hour to reappear on the card.
Balance Showing $0 or the Check Failed?
A few common reasons: the card hasn't been activated yet, the funds have already been spent, the card was reported lost or deactivated, or — less commonly — the card was compromised before you got to use it. If something looks wrong, contact IKEA directly using the phone number above. We can't look up or adjust balances ourselves — only point you to the official source.

Can I check my balance on my phone?
Yes, the online balance checker above works on mobile, and the phone number can be dialed directly from this page.
