80% of the balance

Sell your PetSmart gift card for cash

We buy PetSmart gift cards at 80% of the balance, $10 to $2,000 per card, paid by PayPal or Cash App within 24 hours.

PetSmart credit covers food and supplies plus the in-store services — grooming, training, boarding at PetsHotel locations, and the vet practices that operate inside many stores. That range is genuinely wide, and it is worth checking against your own calendar before selling, because a grooming appointment absorbs a card cleanly.

Where these cards go unused is with people whose pet supplies now arrive on subscription. Once auto-delivery is set up, the trip to a physical pet store stops happening, and a plastic card has no way into that flow.

PetSmart cards are also a standard adoption gift and a standard new-puppy present, which puts them in the hands of people at their most distracted. They get put somewhere safe during a chaotic few weeks and surface a year later.

Our rate is 80% of the verified balance, flat, on cards from $10 to $2,000. Partial balances are welcome and priced the same per dollar as untouched ones.

PetSmart cards do not expire and cover retail plus grooming, training, PetsHotel boarding and doggie day camp at locations that offer them. Boarding in particular absorbs a substantial balance in one booking, which makes it the obvious use for a larger card if you travel at all.

Sell when supplies now arrive automatically from an online subscription, when the pet's circumstances have changed, or when the card was an adoption gift that got put away during a chaotic first few months and has been sitting ever since. Check the services first — they rescue more of these cards than people expect.

PetSmart Charities operates adoption centres inside many stores, which is how a large share of these cards originate — they are given alongside an adoption to help with the first supplies. If you are past that stage and fully stocked, the card has done its job and there is no obligation to keep holding it. Converting it is a perfectly reasonable end to the story.

The balance can be read from PetSmart's own gift card page with the card number and PIN. Check it before submitting and enter the exact amount, cents included.

We confirm the balance with the brand before paying. A lower figure produces a recalculated offer at the same rate, shown to you first, and you keep the card if you decline.

How to check your PetSmart balance

Check it on PetSmart's own site before you sell. You will need the full card number and the PIN — usually under a scratch-off strip on the back, or in the confirmation email for a digital card. Enter the balance here exactly as it reads.

  • 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.

Selling a PetSmart gift card: common questions

80% of the balance we verify with PetSmart. 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 PetSmart card is $2,000.00; 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 PetSmart 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.
