How to Use Your Dick's Gift Card at Online Checkout

Step 1. Add items to your cart on dickssportinggoods.com and proceed to checkout.

Step 2. Log in to your account or continue as a guest. Enter your shipping address when prompted.

Step 3. On the payment page, locate the section labeled "Gift Cards" or "Apply Gift Card." This typically appears above the credit card entry fields.

Step 4. Enter your 16-digit gift card number and the 4-digit PIN (found on the back of physical cards or in your email for digital cards). Click "Apply."

Step 3. The cashier scans the card or manually enters the details. The balance applies to your purchase immediately.

Step 4. If your purchase total is higher than the card balance, pay the difference with cash, debit, or credit card.

Using Partial Balances and Combining Payment Methods

Dick's gift cards allow partial redemption. If your card holds $50 and your order costs $75, you apply the full $50 and cover the $25 difference with another payment method. This works identically online and in-store.

You can combine multiple gift cards in a single transaction. Online, apply the first card, then click "Apply Another Gift Card" and repeat. In-store, hand all cards to the cashier before they process payment.

Digital and physical cards function identically at checkout. The 16-digit number and 4-digit PIN are the only credentials required. No activation step is necessary—Dick's gift cards are ready to use as soon as you receive them.

Checking Your Balance Before Checkout

To avoid surprises at checkout, verify your remaining balance beforehand. Visit dickssportinggoods.com/gift-cards and click "Check Balance." Enter your card number and PIN. The current balance displays immediately.

You can also check your balance by calling Dick's customer service at 1-866-677-4771 or asking a store associate to scan your card at any register.

What to Do If Your Gift Card Doesn't Work

1. Verify the card number and PIN — Double-check for typos. The PIN is case-sensitive on some systems, though Dick's typically uses numbers only.

2. Confirm the card has a balance — A previous purchase may have depleted the funds. Check the balance using the method above.

3. Check regional restrictions — Dick's gift cards are valid only at U.S. locations and on dickssportinggoods.com. They cannot be used on third-party sites or international stores.

4. Contact customer support — If the card is rejected despite having a balance, call 1-866-677-4771. Technical glitches or fraud holds occasionally block valid cards, and support can lift restrictions within minutes.
