80% of the balance

Sell your Marathon gift card for cash

80% of your Marathon balance, in cash, usually the next day. Cards from $10 to $1,000, bought outright — there is nothing to list.

Marathon credit is useful right up until you move, change your route, or simply stop shopping there. Then it becomes a card you keep meaning to use and never quite do.

The reason the rate is not 100% is simple: once we buy the card, the risk is ours. We pay you before we have resold anything, and some cards come back drained or dead. That gap covers the losses, the balance checks and the payment fees. Part-used cards are normal here. Enter the real remaining balance, we confirm it, and you are paid on the confirmed figure — never on a guess in either direction.

Our Marathon rate is 80%, applied to the balance we confirm with the brand. There is no tiering and no negotiation — a $200.00 card is $160.00 whoever is selling it. $10 is the minimum and $1,000 is the per-card maximum. Enter the balance to the cent; rounding up does not help you, because we pay on what the brand confirms.

Nothing here is binding until you submit. Type the balance, look at the number, and decide.

How to check your Marathon balance

Marathon does not publish an online balance checker. Call the number on the back of the card, or ask at the counter next time you are in — either will read the balance off the same system we check against.

No online balance checker for this brand.

When you get paid

Three ways out, no fees on any of them. There is no bank transfer option — we removed it deliberately.

  • PayPal Initiated within 24 hoursUsually the same afternoon once the balance is confirmed.
  • Cash App Initiated within 24 hoursSent to your $Cashtag. Same timing as PayPal.
  • Paper check 5–7 business daysPosted to you. Slower, because the mail is the mail.
  • Card data encrypted and admin-onlyThe full number and PIN are visible to the verification admin and nobody else — not other sellers, not support staff.
  • No fees, everNo listing fee, no commission, no payout fee. The number you accept is the number that arrives.
  • We buy it outrightThere is nothing to list and no buyer to wait on. Once we own the card, the resale risk is ours, not yours.

Selling a Marathon gift card: common questions

80% of the balance we verify with Marathon. A $100.00 card pays $80.00 and a $250.00 card pays $200.00. The rate is flat — it does not improve with larger balances and it does not drop for smaller ones.

$10.00. Below that the payment processing costs more than the trade is worth to either of us. The most we take on a single Marathon card is $1,000.00; if yours is larger, submit it as two cards.

PayPal and Cash App payments are initiated within 24 hours of you submitting the card, and often the same afternoon. A paper check takes 5 to 7 business days because it goes through the mail. The only thing standing between you and the money is the balance check.

We recalculate at the same 80% rate and show you the corrected offer before any money moves. If the new number does not work for you, say no and keep the card. People misremember balances constantly and it is not held against you.

Yes, and most of what we buy is partially used. A Marathon card with $37.18 left is worth the same per dollar as a full one. Enter the exact remaining balance, down to the cents, as long as it is at least $10.00.
