How to Read a Morrisons Gift Card Number and PIN
As of September 2026, Morrisons gift cards remain a common item for Nigerians who receive them from friends, family, or online buyers. Before you can redeem or sell one, you need to locate two things: the card number and the PIN. Reading them correctly takes a minute once you know where to look.
Where to Find the Card Number and PIN
A Morrisons gift card carries its details in different spots depending on whether it is a physical card or a digital one.
On a physical card:
- The long card number — printed across the middle or lower part of the back of the card. The exact length can vary, so confirm the current format with Morrisons.
- The PIN — a shorter code, hidden under a scratch-off panel or printed near the number. The exact length can vary, so confirm the current format with Morrisons.
- The expiry or balance note — sometimes printed alongside, though not always present.
On a digital (e-gift) card:
- The card number and PIN arrive in the email or message you received when the card was bought.
- The code may be a single long string rather than a split number and PIN, depending on how it was issued.
Morrisons gift cards are issued and valid in the UK, so the number format follows UK supermarket standards. If you plan to convert a genuine card to cash, platforms like Cardhorse let you check rates at https://www.cardhorse.com/ for cards you no longer need. Confirm current rates and terms before proceeding.
How to Read and Enter Them Correctly
Reading the digits is one thing; entering them without errors is another. A single wrong character will cause a failed redemption.
Step 1. Check the card surface first. Hold the card under good light and tilt it slightly. The numbers are often embossed or printed in a light colour that fades under dim light.
Step 2. Distinguish similar characters. Watch for the difference between 0 and O, 1 and I, and 8 and B. Morrisons codes may use digits only, but a worn card can make a 6 look like a 5.
Step 3. Scratch the PIN panel gently. Use a coin edge, not a sharp object. Pressing too hard can smear the PIN and make it unreadable.
Step 4. Enter the number exactly as shown. For a physical card, use it at a Morrisons store in the UK. For a digital card, copy and paste the code rather than typing it by hand to avoid mistakes.
Step 5. Confirm the balance before you rely on it. A card with a valid number and PIN can still have a zero balance if it was already used.
If you would rather not travel to the UK to spend the card, you can check what it might be worth in Naira on Cardhorse by downloading the app at https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.cardhorse.app and requesting a quote. Confirm current rates and terms before proceeding.
What to Do If the Code Is Scratched or Damaged
A damaged code does not always mean a dead card, but it does limit your options.
- If the number is partly unreadable — try photographing the card and zooming in. Sometimes the full digits become clearer on screen than to the eye.
- If the PIN panel is smeared — do not scratch further. Contact Morrisons customer service with proof of purchase and the card's serial details if you have them.
- If the card was bought from a third party — damaged codes are a common sign of a tampered or used card. Treat it with caution before paying anyone for it.
- If the card is genuinely intact but you cannot use it — a readable number and PIN are what a buyer or exchange platform needs to verify the card.
Keep in mind that a card with a scratched-off PIN that you did not scratch yourself is a warning sign. Genuine sellers usually leave the panel untouched.

Frequently Asked Questions
Where is the PIN on a Morrisons gift card?
On most physical Morrisons gift cards, the PIN sits under a scratch-off panel on the back, near the card number. Digital cards show the PIN in the original email or message.
How many digits is a Morrisons gift card number?
Physical Morrisons gift cards carry a card number and a shorter PIN, but the exact lengths can vary. Digital cards may combine both into a single code string. Confirm the current format with Morrisons.
Can I read a Morrisons gift card number without scratching the PIN?
Yes. The card number is usually printed openly on the back, so you can read it without touching the PIN panel. Only the PIN requires scratching.
What if my Morrisons gift card PIN is not visible?
If the panel is already scratched or the print is faded, the PIN may be unrecoverable. Contact Morrisons support with proof of purchase, or treat the card as suspect if you bought it second-hand.
