**Quick answer**

Go to netflix.com/redeem, enter the code from the card, email or receipt and click Redeem. Existing members then confirm their account email; new members create an account and choose a plan. The balance pays your next bills. A card bought in another country works only if it is in the same currency as your Netflix bill.

## Redeem a Netflix gift card step by step

1. **Open netflix.com/redeem** — If you received the gift card by SMS, tap the redemption link instead.
2. **Find the code** — Gently scratch the foil on the back with a coin, or copy the code from the email or the gift card section of your receipt.
3. **Enter the code and click Redeem** — Type the code exactly as shown.
4. **Confirm your account** — Existing members enter their account email. New members enter an email, create an account, choose a plan and set a password.
5. **Start watching** — The balance is added to your account, and Netflix emails a reminder 7 days before it runs out.

## What do Netflix gift card errors mean?

"The code you entered has already been used" usually means the card was redeemed on an account; check the Payment History or Membership page. "The code entered is not valid" can mean a typo, or a card the merchant has not activated yet, so wait 24 hours. "The gift code does not match the country" means the card's currency differs from your billing currency. "You reached the maximum gift balance allowed per account" means no more cards can be added for now. If the code is scratched or unreadable, contact Netflix. For a code bought from us, email support@giftswithcrypto.com.

## Can I redeem if I pay through Apple or a package?

Not while you are billed through Apple: cancel, wait until the account closes, then restart with the gift card. With a Netflix-included package, save the card until the account is no longer linked, or use it on another account. Extra member accounts cannot redeem gift codes; create your own account instead. Other third-party billing accepts gift cards.

## How does Netflix use the gift balance?

Netflix takes each monthly payment from the gift balance. Several cards are used one at a time, in the order you redeemed them. Changing plans changes how fast the balance is used. If your account is on hold, redeeming a card releases the hold within 60 minutes.

## Frequently asked questions

### Do Netflix gift cards expire?

No. Netflix says gift cards do not expire, and this is printed on the back of each card. They are non-refundable and cannot be reloaded.

### How do I check my Netflix gift card balance?

Enter the code at netflix.com/redeem and click Redeem to see the balance. After redeeming, the available balance shows on the Billing Details or Membership page.

### Can I use a gift card bought abroad?

Yes, if the card is in the same currency as your Netflix bill. Otherwise Netflix shows "The gift code does not match the country".

### What happens if I cancel with balance left?

You can keep watching Netflix until the gift balance runs out. Gift cards are non-refundable, so the remaining balance is not paid back.
