How to Check Your World Market Gift Card Balance

Check your World Market gift card balance through the official Cost Plus World Market page, with what to enter and how to cash out an unused card.

Check World Market balance on official site

Cost Plus World Market issues a physical gift card with a PIN, spendable on furniture, decor, and their food-and-wine aisles. Keep the card handy so both numbers are ready.

Check your World Market balance online

  1. Open the official World Market balance page above.
  2. Enter the card number.
  3. Enter the PIN from the back.
  4. Submit to see the current total.

You'll want

  • The World Market card number.
  • The PIN on the reverse.

Other ways to check

  • Any World Market store can scan the card at the counter for you.
  • Customer service will read the balance by phone.

If it won't load

Re-enter both numbers carefully; a single wrong digit is the usual reason a check fails. A same-day purchase may need an hour to register.

Why it might read $0

The balance spreads across big furniture buys and small food, wine, and decor pickups, so it's easy to have drawn it down without noticing — check your World Market orders. A gifted card that never worked from the start signals an activation miss; the receipt lets them reload it.

Turn an unused World Market card into cash

If you're not furnishing a room or stocking the pantry, that credit converts to money on FlipGift — and the card stays entirely in your hands. A buyer funds escrow, you complete their order with your own card and add proof, and the payout releases on delivery, usually 72-88% of face after a 2.5% fee split. Sell your World Market balance.

Shopping at World Market rather than selling? A World Market 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 World Market order works out →

World Market gift card balance — FAQ

Can I check my World Market 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 World Market customer service.

Is checking my World Market gift card balance free?

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

Can I combine multiple World Market gift cards?

World Market 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 World Market gift card is lost or stolen?

If you registered the card or have the original receipt, contact World Market 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 World Market gift card?

Most U.S. states don’t require World Market 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 World Market gift card?

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

What can I do with a World Market 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 World Market 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.
