How to Check Your Fortnite V-Bucks Gift Card Balance

Redeem and check Fortnite V-Bucks — the code adds currency to your Epic Games account.

You must be signed in to your store account to view this balance.

Fortnite V-Bucks cards aren't a typical balance card — you redeem the code to add V-Bucks (Fortnite's in-game currency) to your Epic Games account, and from then on the balance lives in the game. Here's how it works.

Check your Fortnite V-Bucks card

  1. Use the button above to reach the official Fortnite V-Bucks redemption page.
  2. Enter the PIN/code from the back of the card (scratch off the panel to reveal it).
  3. Sign in to your Epic Games account and confirm the platform.
  4. Submit to add the V-Bucks — your balance then appears in-game, not on the card.

What you'll need

  • The redemption PIN — hidden under the scratch-off strip on the back of the card.
  • Your Epic Games account login and the correct platform selection.

Other ways to check

  • Once redeemed, open Fortnite and view your V-Bucks total at the top of the store or locker screen.
  • Sign in to your Epic Games account to confirm the currency was added.
  • Contact Epic Games support if a code won't redeem.

V-Bucks card showing $0 or "already redeemed"?

Because the code converts to in-game currency, a card that reads empty or "already redeemed" usually means someone entered it into an Epic account already — check the V-Bucks balance in your game. V-Bucks generally can't be refunded, so keep unredeemed cards secure until you use them.

Got a Fortnite V-Bucks card you won't use?

The straightforward option is to redeem it into your own Epic account for a future battle pass or skin, or gift the sealed card to a player who's into Fortnite. Because the code activates into a personal account, hold it privately until then. (Note: FlipGift's escrow marketplace only handles shippable retail-store cards, so digital game currency like V-Bucks isn't something we can buy — but if you hold a card from one of the ~198 retailers we cover, you can sell that here.)

Fortnite V-Bucks gift card balance — FAQ

Do Fortnite V-Bucks gift cards expire?

In most U.S. states, gift cards are protected from expiring for at least five years, and many Fortnite V-Bucks cards don’t expire at all. Check the terms printed on your card or its packaging to be sure.

Where do I find the card number and PIN on a Fortnite V-Bucks gift card?

On a physical Fortnite V-Bucks card, the number is printed on the front or back, and the PIN is usually a separate code under a scratch-off panel on the back. For an eGift card, both are in your confirmation email.

Can I check my Fortnite V-Bucks 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 Fortnite V-Bucks customer service.

Is checking my Fortnite V-Bucks gift card balance free?

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

Can I combine multiple Fortnite V-Bucks gift cards?

Fortnite V-Bucks 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 Fortnite V-Bucks gift card is lost or stolen?

If you registered the card or have the original receipt, contact Fortnite V-Bucks 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.

What can I do with a Fortnite V-Bucks gift card I don’t want?

Use it toward a purchase you'd make anyway, regift it to someone who shops there, or check whether the brand's own app lets you combine balances — a gift card is easiest to get value from by simply spending it.
