Sell your StubHub gift card for cash

We buy StubHub gift cards at 72% of the balance — $10 minimum and no maximum, paid by PayPal or Cash App within 24 hours.

StubHub is a resale marketplace rather than a box office, so the credit on the card is only worth what other people happen to be listing. Two seats at the same venue can differ by a hundred dollars depending on who is selling that week, which makes a fixed balance an awkward thing to plan around. A card that covered a pair of tickets when it was given often covers one by the time somebody gets round to using it.

Fees are the other half of it. The number on a listing is not the number at checkout, and a card sized against the listing price frequently falls short of the total. Topping up with your own money at the final screen is the moment a lot of people abandon the purchase and leave the credit where it is.

StubHub cards and eGift cards do not expire, which sounds like a reason to hold one and is usually the reason it is still sitting there. Credit with no deadline never forces a decision. The exception is worth knowing before you wait: promotional cards issued by StubHub or by one of its partners can carry an expiry, so a card that arrived as a reward rather than as a gift is not necessarily open-ended.

The cards cannot be redeemed for cash by StubHub and cannot be returned for a refund, which is the specific dead end that brings most people here. Sell when live events are not how you spend money, when the card was a corporate reward for something you attended once, or when the artist or team it was bought for has been and gone.

Our rate is 72% of the verified balance, on any card from $10 up with no ceiling. Event credit resells harder than retail credit, and the rate says so at the start rather than at the end.

StubHub keeps the balance behind a signed-in account page rather than on an open balance checker, and its support line can read it out. If you intend to sell the card, prefer the support line: anything that attaches a code to an account risks turning a transferable card into account credit, which is not the same thing and is not something we can buy.

We verify before paying. A confirmed balance lower than what you entered produces a corrected offer at the same 72% rate, shown to you before anything is sent, and declining leaves the card with you at no cost.

How to check your StubHub balance

StubHub does not have a stable public balance-check page we can link straight to, so the reliable route is to search for it and use the result on StubHub's own domain. You will need the card number, and the pin or security code if your card has one. Both are usually on the back — the pin or security code under a scratch-off strip — or in the confirmation email for a digital card. Never enter those on a third-party site.

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-onlyWhatever the card carries — a code, or a number and a PIN — is 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 StubHub gift card: common questions

72% of the balance we verify with StubHub. A $100.00 card pays $72.00 and a $250.00 card pays $180.00. 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. There is no upper limit on a single StubHub card — large balances take the same rate and the same route as small ones.

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 72% 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.

The card number, and the pin or security code if your card has one. Some StubHub cards carry one and some do not, so leave it blank if yours does not — it will not hold up the check.

In cash, 72% of whatever balance is actually left on it: a $50.00 card is $36.00 and a $200.00 card is $144.00. Check the balance with StubHub before you decide, because what a card is remembered as holding and what it actually holds are rarely the same number. The calculator on this page prices any balance you type.

Yes, and most of what we buy is partially used. A StubHub 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.
