Sell Your Kohl's Gift Card for Cash

Diagram of a FlipGift escrow deal: buyer pays into escrow, seller orders with their gift card, the item ships with proof, then the money is released

Sell your Kohl's gift card for cash without handing anyone the number or PIN. You use the card to pay for a buyer's Kohl's order, their money waits in escrow, and it's released to you when the order arrives — typically 72–88% of face value, against the 60–85% buy-back sites pay after taking the code.

Why Kohl's gift cards go unused

Kohl's cards and Kohl's Cash accumulate fast and expire unused if there's no Kohl's nearby.

Kohl's gift card, Kohl's Cash or Sephora at Kohl's?

Three things get called Kohl's money, and only one of them can pay for a buyer's order. Kohl's own rules sort them out:

  • A gift card with a PIN pays on kohls.com. It goes on the payment screen at checkout, not in the coupon box. A card or merchandise credit without a PIN works only in a store, so it can't fill an order here.
  • Up to four gift cards per order. Holding several smaller Kohl's cards? List up to four together on FlipGift as one balance and they can fill one bigger order.
  • Kohl's Cash is a coupon, not a balance. It's applied in the cart with its own code, it's nontransferable and it can't buy Sephora items or gift cards. Spend it on your own shopping; it can't be sold here.
  • Sephora at Kohl's counts. A Kohl's gift card pays for Sephora products at Sephora at Kohl's and on kohls.com, but not at standalone Sephora stores or on sephora.com.
  • Not for other gift cards or a Kohl's Card balance, and it can't be cashed out.

How to sell your Kohl's card the safe way

  1. List your Kohl's card — brand and balance only, never the code.
  2. A buyer who wants clothing from Kohl's pays for their order into escrow.
  3. You place their order with your card and upload the confirmation and tracking.
  4. When they confirm delivery, escrow pays you.

Frequently asked questions

Do I have to share my Kohl's card number or PIN to sell it?

No. You keep the card and use it to pay for a buyer's Kohl's order yourself — the number and PIN are never typed into any site or handed to anyone.

How much will I get for my Kohl's gift card?

Typically 72–88% of face value: you set the discount, the buyer pays that price into escrow, and you keep it minus a 2.5% seller fee and the 2% withdrawal fee. Buy-back sites usually pay 60–85% and take the code first.

How fast do I get paid for my Kohl's card?

When the buyer confirms their Kohl's order arrived — or automatically about 16 days after it ships if they never respond. You can then withdraw as crypto or a digital prepaid Visa card.

Can I exchange a Kohl's gift card for cash?

Not at Kohl's: the card may not be redeemed for cash except where the law requires it. Here you keep the card and use it to pay for a buyer's kohls.com order. Their money waits in escrow and is released to you when they confirm delivery, typically 72–88% of face value, and nobody ever sees the card number or PIN.

Can you use a Kohl's gift card at Sephora?

At Sephora at Kohl's, yes: in Kohl's stores and for Sephora products on kohls.com. At standalone Sephora stores and on sephora.com, no. So a buyer who wants Sephora products ordered through kohls.com can be served with your Kohl's card.
