How to Check Your Total Wine Gift Card Balance

Check your Total Wine gift card balance on the official Total Wine portal, plus what to do with a card you won't spend at the store.

Check Total Wine balance on official site

Total Wine & More issues a physical card with a PIN, spendable in store on wine, spirits, and beer. Because alcohol shipping is restricted, these cards are used at the register far more than online. Have the card handy.

Check your Total Wine balance online

  1. Open the official Total Wine balance page above.
  2. Enter the card number.
  3. Enter the PIN.
  4. Submit to see the current amount.

What you'll need

  • The Total Wine card number.
  • The PIN on the reverse.

Other ways to check

  • Any Total Wine store can scan the card at checkout.
  • Customer service can confirm the balance by phone.

If the balance won't load

Re-enter both numbers carefully; a single wrong digit is the common blocker. A same-day purchase may take a while to register.

Reads $0?

A case of wine or a few bottles of spirits clears one of these cards in a single trip, so a zero most often means it was already spent in store. Check with the location if a recent purchase doesn't ring a bell.

Got a Total Wine card you won't use?

The practical route is to spend it in store on something for a gathering, or gift the card to someone who'd use it. FlipGift doesn't buy alcohol-retailer gift cards, so there's no sale option here. If you hold an unwanted card from one of the ~198 retail stores we do cover, you can browse the marketplace.

Total Wine gift card balance — FAQ

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

If you registered the card or have the original receipt, contact Total Wine 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 a Total Wine gift card?

Most U.S. states don’t require Total Wine to redeem gift cards for cash unless the remaining balance falls below a small threshold (often $5–$10). The simplest way to get full value is to spend it yourself or pass it to someone who shops there.

Can I reload my Total Wine gift card?

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

Do Total Wine gift cards expire?

In most U.S. states, gift cards are protected from expiring for at least five years, and many Total Wine 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 Total Wine gift card?

On a physical Total Wine 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 Total Wine 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 Total Wine customer service.

What can I do with a Total Wine 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.
