How to check your McDonald's gift card balance

  • Open the official McDonald’s checker linked on this page, or add the Arch Card in the McDonald’s app and read the cash balance there.

  • Type the number and PIN only on McDonald’s side. We will not ask for them.

  • If you would rather eat at Chick-fil-A this month, that is a different card — sell this Arch Card (up to 85%) instead of forcing a fourth Big Mac.

McDonald's gift card balance FAQ

Are MyMcDonald’s Rewards the same as an Arch Card?

No. Points and personalized deals sit on the app account. Arch Card cash is prepaid tender.

Will this card pay at Chick-fil-A?

No. Separate brands, separate cards. We only link the two so you can jump to the other QSR page.

Can I buy a discounted McDonald’s card here?

When the buy table has live inventory, yes — up to 5% off (typically 5–15% across the desk). Selling unused value pays up to 85% after verification.
