**Quick answer**

For a UK card, open the Just Eat app or just-eat.co.uk/giftcards/redeem, log in, go to Account, then Account Credit, and enter the code. Lieferando and Takeaway.com cards go in at checkout under Add a voucher/gift card, as card number, hashtag and PIN. Each card works only on its own country's platform, and UK cards must be redeemed within one year of purchase.

## Redeem a Just Eat gift card step by step

1. **Pick the right platform** — UK cards belong on Just Eat UK. German and Austrian cards are Lieferando cards, and Belgian cards are Takeaway.com cards.
2. **Log in (UK)** — Open the Just Eat app or just-eat.co.uk/giftcards/redeem, then log in or create an account to redeem the card.
3. **Add account credit (UK)** — Navigate to Account, then Account Credit, and type the gift card code in the box. The value appears in your account credit balance.
4. **Enter number#PIN (Lieferando, Takeaway.com)** — At checkout, select Add a voucher/gift card. Type the gift card number, a # sign and the PIN code.
5. **Cover any difference** — If the order costs more, pay the rest by credit or debit card. Lieferando and Takeaway.com also take Apple Pay, Google Pay or PayPal for the gap.

## Is Just Eat credit stored on my account or used at checkout?

The answer differs between Just Eat brands. In the UK, the code turns into account credit, which you then pick as a payment method on any Just Eat order. Any remaining balance stays on the account until you use it. To confirm a redemption, open Your account and look at Account credit.

On Lieferando and Takeaway.com, the card itself pays at checkout. If an order costs less, the rest stays on the card for your next order. If you cancel an order, the amount paid by gift card goes back onto the card. Lieferando's [balance checker](https://www.lieferando.de/geschenkkarten/saldocheck) shows what is left using the card number and PIN.

## Does a UK Just Eat gift card work in Germany or Belgium?

No. UK cards only pay for takeaway orders on Just Eat UK. They do not work on other Just Eat sites around the world or directly at restaurants. Lieferando.de cards are redeemable only for online and app orders with Lieferando.de businesses, and Takeaway.com cards only on Takeaway.com. For orders in Germany, choose the [German Just Eat (Lieferando) card](https://giftswithcrypto.com/gift-cards/just-eat/germany/).

## What if my Just Eat gift card does not work?

Check the format first. Lieferando and Takeaway.com ask for the number, a hashtag and the PIN together, so make sure all three parts are there. Then check the platform, because a UK code will not redeem on a German or Belgian site.

Timing matters too. UK cards must reach an account within one year of purchase. Lieferando cards with no printed expiry date stay valid for 3 years from purchase. On Lieferando, gift card credit also cannot be combined with promo codes or discount vouchers.

Just Eat UK offers chat, email and phone through its [help centre](https://www.just-eat.co.uk/help/). A code bought from us gets help at support@giftswithcrypto.com; add your order number.
