How to Check Your Olive Garden Gift Card Balance
- Find the numbers. Locate the card number and the PIN on the back of the card (scratch the silver strip gently if there is one).
- Open the balance page. Go to the Gift Cards section of olivegarden.com and choose Check Balance.
- Enter your details. Type the card number and PIN exactly, then complete the check.
- Note the balance. Write the balance on the card or take a screenshot so you don't need to check again at the table.
You can also call the phone number printed on the back of the card, or ask your server to check it before you order. Only check your balance on olivegarden.com or by the number on the card; balance-checking sites run by others can steal card numbers.
