How to redeem a Zara gift card
To redeem a Zara gift card, you first need to activate it whether you bought it in-store or online. If you’re buying online, you can just go to the gift card activation page on the brand’s website and fill out the form to do so.
If you’re shopping in-store, this can be done while you’re checking out. You’ll need to show the sales assistant at Zara your e-gift card either by printing it or via your phone, and when they put through your sale the card will be activated.
If you plan to spend it online, head to the checkout page and select the gift card option when asked how you’ll pay for your purchase. You’ll then need to enter the gift card number and security code (or CVV2) to complete your purchase.
How to check a Zara gift card balance
It’s really easy to check the balance of your gift card and it can be done in-store and online. Just go to the page dedicated to checking the card balance and fill out the form online. If you want to check it in-store, just ask the person at the register to do it for you.
Can I use a Zara gift card at Bershka?
Quick answer: yes.
Zara gift cards are valid for use in other Inditex brands, including Bershka, Pull & Bear, Massimo Dutti, Pull & Bear, Stradivarius, and even Zara Home. Yay! One thing to note is that gift cards are only valid in the region in which they were purchased, so you can’t use it on holiday.
Does a Zara gift card expire?
Yes. Every Zara gift card has an expiration date, so make sure to check this and spend it in time so you don’t miss out.
Can I use a Zara Home gift card online?
Just like the regular Zara gift cards, Zara Home gift cards can also be used online. These need to be activated first too.
Does ZARA refund gift cards?
If you return an item bought with a gift card, we’ll give you a new one. If it’s an online purchase, they will send you a virtual copy of the original card with your updated balance included in an email.
Can Klarna be used at Zara?
The brand does allow payments via Klarna but it depends on where you live. Unfortunately, Zara doesn’t accept Klarna for anyone living in the UK.
