Ulta Beauty Gift Card Balance: How to Check It

Three Ways to Check Your Ulta Beauty Balance

  1. Onlinevisit the official balance checker. You'll typically need the card number and the CVV/security code from the back of the card.
  2. Phone — call 1-888-566-2736 and follow the automated prompts. Have your card number ready.
  3. In-store — Ask an Ulta Beauty cashier to check the balance in any store.

Where to Buy Ulta Beauty Gift Cards

The most reliable source is Ulta's own website, ulta.com, where you can buy both physical and digital gift cards directly from the brand.

Ulta Beauty gift cards are also available in person at any Ulta Beauty store nationwide, making it easy to pick one up during a regular shopping trip.

Since Ulta operates standalone stores as well as Ulta Beauty at Target shop-in-shops, checking your local Target is another option, though note that cards bought through Ulta are not redeemable at the Target-based locations.

Ulta gift cards can also be found on Amazon, sold as both physical cards and eGift cards, if you prefer to order online through a marketplace.

Because Ulta is primarily a specialty beauty retailer, it is not typically stocked at grocery stores or drugstores, so ulta.com or an Ulta store location remain the most dependable choices.

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 Ulta Beauty 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.
