How to Use Your adidas Gift Card at Checkout (Online & In-Store)

As of August 2026, adidas gift cards can be used both online at adidas.com and in adidas retail stores — but the steps differ slightly depending on where you shop. If you have a card and want to put the balance to work, here is exactly how to do it.


Use Your adidas Gift Card at Online Checkout

Shopping on adidas.com is the most common way to redeem your card. The process is straightforward once you know where to enter the code.

  1. Browse and add items. Go to adidas.com, select the items you want, and add them to your cart.

  2. Proceed to checkout. Click the cart icon and select "Checkout." You will be prompted to sign in or continue as a guest.

  3. Locate the gift card field. On the payment page, look for the "Gift Card / Discount Code" section. It is usually displayed near the order summary.

  4. Enter your card details. Type or paste the gift card number and PIN (if required) into the relevant fields, then click "Apply."

  5. Confirm the balance is applied. The order total should update immediately to reflect your gift card balance. If the balance does not cover the full amount, you will be prompted to pay the remainder with another method.

  6. Complete your order. Review the order summary and confirm the purchase.

The card number and PIN are typically printed on the back of a physical card or included in the email for a digital card. Scratch off the silver panel on a physical card to reveal the PIN.

For Nigerians who received an adidas gift card from a friend or family member abroad, Cardhorse offers a way to convert that card to Naira if you prefer cash over merchandise — visit https://www.cardhorse.com/ to get a live rate.


Use Your adidas Gift Card In-Store

If you have access to a physical adidas retail store (typically applicable when travelling or for cards issued in the USA, UK, Europe, Australia, or Canada), redeeming in-store is simple.

  1. Bring the physical card or digital confirmation. For a physical gift card, carry the card itself. For a digital gift card, have the email or code accessible on your phone.

  2. Shop and bring your items to the register. Select your items and proceed to the checkout counter.

  3. Inform the cashier you are paying with a gift card. Hand over the physical card or show the code on your phone.

  4. The cashier scans or manually enters the card. Most adidas store registers can scan the barcode on the card directly.

  5. Pay any remaining balance separately. If the gift card does not cover the full purchase, settle the outstanding amount with cash or another payment method.

In-store redemption is subject to the policies of the specific country where the store operates. A US-issued adidas gift card, for example, is redeemable at US adidas stores but not at stores in other regions.

Using Part of the Balance or Combining With Another Payment

adidas gift cards do not have to be spent in a single transaction. Here is how partial-balance and split-payment situations work:

  1. Partial use online. Apply the gift card at checkout as described above. If your cart total exceeds the card balance, the system will automatically prompt you to add a second payment method (credit card, debit card, or PayPal) to cover the difference.

  2. Check your remaining balance. After a transaction, visit the gift card balance checker on adidas.com or contact adidas customer support to confirm how much is left on the card.

  3. Use the remainder on a future order. The leftover balance stays on the card and can be applied to your next purchase using the same steps.

  4. Splitting between two gift cards. adidas typically allows you to apply more than one gift card to a single order. Enter each card code separately in the gift card field before completing checkout.

Keep the original card or email confirmation until the balance reaches zero. You will need the card number to check the balance or dispute any issues.


Redemption Tips Worth Knowing

  1. Check the card is valid before checkout. Verify the balance and expiry on adidas.com or by calling adidas customer service before you start shopping — this saves time if there is an issue.

  2. Treat the PIN like a password. Do not share the PIN or post photos of the back of the card online. Anyone with the number and PIN can spend the balance.

  3. Note the currency and region. adidas gift cards are issued in specific currencies (USD, GBP, EUR, AUD, CAD). They are not interchangeable across regions, so a UK-issued card will not work on the US adidas site.

  4. Contact adidas support for errors. If the code is declined despite being valid, reach out to adidas customer support directly at adidas.com. Keep the purchase receipt as proof.

  5. Consider selling if the card does not suit you. If you cannot use the card — for example, because it is region-locked or you simply prefer Naira in hand — platforms like Cardhorse at https://www.cardhorse.com/ allow you to trade the card for cash.

Frequently Asked Questions

Can you use an adidas gift card on adidas.com from Nigeria?

adidas.com typically restricts purchases to the country or region where the site is operated. A US adidas gift card is designed for the US adidas site. Nigerian shoppers may face regional restrictions when trying to complete a purchase, including payment and shipping limitations. If the card cannot be used, selling it on a platform like Cardhorse is an alternative.

Do adidas gift cards expire?

Expiry policies vary by the country where the card was issued. Many adidas gift cards do not expire, but some markets apply inactivity fees or expiry dates. Check the terms printed on the card or in the gift card email for the specific policy.

Can you use an adidas gift card more than once?

Yes. The balance remains on the card after each partial use. You can continue using it across multiple transactions until the balance reaches zero.

What happens if the gift card balance is less than the cart total?

adidas allows you to pay the difference using a credit card, debit card, or another accepted payment method. The system prompts you to add a second payment method automatically when the gift card balance falls short.

Can you combine two adidas gift cards in one order?

Generally yes — adidas allows multiple gift cards to be applied to a single order online. Enter each code separately in the gift card section of the checkout page.

Can you return an item purchased with an adidas gift card?

adidas typically refunds the value back to the original gift card used for payment. The refunded amount is credited to the card and can be used on a future purchase. Check adidas's current return policy for exact terms.


If you have a valid, unredeemed adidas gift card you would rather convert to Naira than spend on merchandise, Cardhorse provides a live rate and payment typically within minutes.
