Check your Cheesecake Factory gift card or eGift balance on the official CashStar page, plus what to do with one you won't dine on.
The Cheesecake Factory sells both a physical card and a CashStar eGift you receive by email; the eGift version has no scratch PIN — the code travels in the email. Their balance page runs on CashStar.

Reads $0?
Cheesecake Factory checks run high, so a single dinner or takeout order can clear a card in one sitting — that's the usual reason for a zero. An eGift can also have been redeemed already if the code was shared.
Got a Cheesecake Factory card you won't use?
The natural move is a dinner or a slice to go, or forwarding the eGift to someone who'd enjoy it. FlipGift's restaurant orders don't cover The Cheesecake Factory yet, so there's no cash-out for this one here. If you happen to hold a card from one of the ~198 retail stores we support, you can browse them.
The Cheesecake Factory gift card balance — FAQ
Do The Cheesecake Factory gift cards expire?
In most U.S. states, gift cards are protected from expiring for at least five years, and many The Cheesecake Factory 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 Cheesecake Factory gift card?
On a physical The Cheesecake Factory 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 The Cheesecake Factory 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 The Cheesecake Factory customer service.
Is checking my The Cheesecake Factory gift card balance free?
Yes. Checking your balance online, by phone, or in store is always free — The Cheesecake Factory never charges to look up a gift card balance.
Can I combine multiple The Cheesecake Factory gift cards?
The Cheesecake Factory 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 The Cheesecake Factory gift card is lost or stolen?
If you registered the card or have the original receipt, contact The Cheesecake Factory 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 Cheesecake Factory 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.
