How to Check Your Aerie Gift Card Balance

Check your Aerie gift card balance (also good at American Eagle), and sell unused credit through FlipGift escrow.

Check Aerie balance on official site

Aerie gift cards are physical cards with a scratch-off PIN, and since Aerie and American Eagle are sister brands, the same card spends at both — in Aerie and AE stores and on their websites.

Checking your Aerie gift card balance

  1. Open the Aerie balance link above.
  2. Enter the card number.
  3. Enter the PIN and submit to view the balance.

What you'll need

  • The Aerie card number (or the eGift email).
  • The PIN under the scratch panel.

Other ways to check

Any Aerie or American Eagle store can scan the card, since the two brands share a gift card system, and the balance shows at online checkout. Receipts print the remaining amount.

If the balance won't load

Re-enter the number and PIN. Because Aerie and AE share the card, a balance spent at American Eagle reduces what's left here — so a lower figure than expected may just reflect a purchase at the sister brand.

Aerie balance showing $0?

Loungewear and apparel cards often zero out in one online haul across Aerie or AE. Check both brands' order histories under your account. If the card is unused and still reads zero, ask support to confirm activation with your receipt.

Selling an Aerie card you won't use

Cross-brand or not, plenty of Aerie credit goes unspent. FlipGift buys the value through escrow while your code stays private: you advertise the amount, a buyer's payment sits locked until the end, you order with your own card, and the money comes to you after arrival is verified. It's a flat 2.5% fee split two ways, and sellers commonly keep 72–88% of face value. See how escrow works →

Shopping at Aerie rather than selling? A Aerie order placed through escrow lands 8–40% under retail — someone else's balance pays for it and the item ships to you, with no code changing hands either way. How a Aerie order works out →

Aerie gift card balance — FAQ

Can I check my Aerie balance without the PIN?

The online checker usually needs both the card number and PIN. Without the PIN, check your balance in store or by contacting Aerie customer service.

Is checking my Aerie gift card balance free?

Yes. Checking your balance online, by phone, or in store is always free — Aerie never charges to look up a gift card balance.

Can I combine multiple Aerie gift cards?

Aerie usually lets you apply more than one gift card to a single order at checkout. The exact limit depends on the platform (online vs. in store) — if a card isn’t accepted at the register, try splitting payment online instead.

What should I do if my Aerie gift card is lost or stolen?

If you registered the card or have the original receipt, contact Aerie customer service as soon as possible. Without a receipt or registration, gift cards generally cannot be replaced — treat them like cash and record the number and PIN somewhere safe right after purchase.

Can I get cash back for an Aerie gift card?

Most U.S. states don’t require Aerie to redeem gift cards for cash unless the remaining balance falls below a small threshold (often $5–$10). To turn an unwanted card into cash instead, sell its value through FlipGift Escrow — you keep the card and its code, and typically net 72–88% of face value.

Can I reload my Aerie gift card?

Some Aerie gift cards can be reloaded online or in store, others can’t — it depends on the program. Check the card’s terms or the Aerie site to confirm whether your card supports reload.

What can I do with an Aerie gift card I don’t want?

If you won't use it, sell its value through FlipGift Escrow — you keep the card and its code, and typically net 72–88% of face value, instead of letting the balance go to waste.

Don’t need your Aerie card?

Sell it via FlipGift escrow — the code stays with you the whole time. You redeem the card yourself to deliver the buyer’s order, and the buyer’s money is held until delivery is confirmed. Sellers typically net 72–88% of face value.
