How to Read a Grubhub Gift Card Number and PIN
As of September 2026, Grubhub gift cards are one of the food delivery cards Nigerians may receive from friends and family abroad. Before you can use or resell one, you need to know exactly where the card number and PIN sit — and how to read them without making mistakes.
This guide shows you where to find those details on both physical and digital cards, how to enter them correctly at checkout, and what to do if the code is scratched or damaged.
Where to Find the Card Number and PIN
The location depends on whether you have a physical card or a digital one.
Physical Grubhub gift card
- The card number is the long string of digits printed on the back of the card, often grouped in fours. The exact length can vary, so confirm the format on your card.
- The PIN is a shorter code printed right next to or below the card number. The exact length can vary, so confirm the format on your card. On some cards it sits under a scratch-off strip.
- Some cards show the number on the front instead. Check both sides before assuming it is missing.
Digital Grubhub gift card
- The card number and PIN arrive together in the email or message you received.
- They may also appear as a single combined code. In that case, follow the issuer's instructions to separate the card number and PIN.
- If you were sent a screenshot, zoom in — digital codes are easy to misread.
Grubhub cards are typically issued for use in the USA. Common denominations may vary, so check the card or issuer terms. When you're ready to convert a genuine card to Naira, Cardhorse offers rates at https://www.cardhorse.com/ — confirm the current rate before you commit.
How to Read and Enter Them Correctly
Reading the code is one thing — entering it without errors is where most people slip up.
- Write the code down first. Copy the card number and PIN exactly as printed, letter for letter and digit for digit. Do this before you start typing anywhere.
- Watch for look-alike characters. The number 0 and the letter O, or 1 and I, are the usual culprits. Grubhub card numbers are typically digits only, but confirm the format on your card.
- Ignore spaces and dashes. The groups of four are just for readability. Type the digits as one continuous string.
- Enter the code at checkout. On grubhub.com or the Grubhub app, add items to your cart, go to checkout, and select the gift card payment option. Type the card number, then the PIN, in their separate fields.
- Confirm the balance. After applying the card, the remaining balance should show on screen. If it doesn't, the code was likely entered wrong.

What to Do If the Code Is Scratched or Damaged
A damaged code isn't always a dead card. Try these steps in order.
- Look under good light. Tilt the card toward a lamp. Faint or partially scratched digits often become readable at an angle.
- Use a soft pencil trick. Gently rub graphite over the scratched area on a physical card. The raised print sometimes reveals the missing digits.
- Check your email again. If it's a digital card, the original message still holds the full code. Search your inbox for "Grubhub gift card".
- Contact the sender. Ask whoever bought the card for the purchase receipt. It usually shows the full card number.
- Reach out to Grubhub support. If the card was bought directly and the code is unreadable, support can sometimes trace it with proof of purchase.
- Never buy a card with a tampered scratch panel. If the strip looks peeled or resealed, walk away. That's a common sign of a drained card.
Once you've confirmed the card is genuine and unused, converting it to cash is an option. Cardhorse shows you a rate before you commit — confirm the current rate and terms.

Frequently Asked Questions
Where is the PIN on a Grubhub gift card?
On physical cards, the PIN is printed near the card number on the back, sometimes under a scratch-off strip. On digital cards, it comes in the same email or message as the card number.
How many digits is a Grubhub gift card number?
Physical Grubhub gift cards typically use a 16-digit number, grouped in fours. The PIN is shorter, usually 4 to 8 digits.
Can I read a Grubhub gift card number without scratching it?
No. If the number or PIN sits under a scratch panel, you must scratch it gently to reveal the code. Scraping too hard can damage the digits underneath.
Why does my Grubhub gift card code not work?
The most common reasons are a typing error, a card that hasn't been activated, or a card with no remaining balance. Re-enter the code carefully first, then check the balance.
Can I use a Grubhub gift card in Nigeria?
Grubhub gift cards are typically issued for use in the USA and are redeemed on grubhub.com or the Grubhub app. In Nigeria, one option is to convert the card to Naira through a platform like Cardhorse — confirm the current issuer terms and platform rates.
If you have a valid, unredeemed Grubhub gift card you'd rather convert to cash, Cardhorse offers a rate — confirm the current rate and payment timing before you commit.
