Sell Your Zales Gift Card for Cash
Updated September 23, 2026 · Reviewed by Kirill Novikov, FlipGift founder
Sell your Zales gift card for cash without handing anyone the number or PIN. You use the card to pay for a buyer's Zales 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 Zales gift cards go unused
Zales cards hold value gifted toward future occasions.
How to sell your Zales card the safe way
- List your Zales card — brand and balance only, never the code.
- A buyer who wants diamond jewelry from Zales pays for their order into escrow.
- You place their order with your card and upload the confirmation and tracking.
- When they confirm delivery, escrow pays you.
