8 Pin-Enabled Gift Cards You Can Load to Target REDcard

Share with a friend

You can’t load your Target REDcard with a credit card.  However, you can load your Target REDcard with a pin-enabled gift card.

Do you know which pin-enabled gift cards you can load to Target REDcard?

8 Pin-Enabled Gift Cards You Can Load to Target REDcard

Just like Bluebird and Serve, you can load up to $2,500 a day ($5,000 a month) to your Target REDcard with pin-enabled gift cards.

You have to go to Walmart to load your Bluebird and Serve card.  But with the Target REDcard, you can load your REDcard at Target.  This is great for people who don’t have a Walmart nearby (or don’t like going to Walmart) or live or work near a Target.

 

Which Pin Enabled Gift Cards Can Be Loaded to Target REDcard

1. Gift Cards Bought at Office Supply Stores

You can buy fixed rate Visa and MasterCard gift cards at Staples, Office Depot and Office Max in $25, $50, $100, and $200 denominations with a credit card.

Variable rate gift cards are also available at Office Depot and Office Max, but you can not purchase them using a credit card.

All gift cards sold at Office Depot, Office Max, and Staples can be loaded to your Target REDcard.

Why would one load load gift cards to a Target Card?

Hi SC,

The Target REDcard allows you to pay bills and you get 5% off when you shop at Target. So instead of using cash you used to be able to load gift cards bought with credit cards to your Target REDcard.

However, Target stopped allowing gift and debit card loads to their REDcard in October.
