The current balance of your Gift Card will be displayed on your last receipt. You can also see your balance at the checkout in any LIDL store or online at www.lidl.ie/giftcard

Treat your card like cash. In case of loss, theft or misuse of the Gift Card, LIDL is not obliged to replace it. We will issue a new card if possible, as your Gift Card can be blocked before it is used for the first time. For this, the Gift Card number and the PIN will be required.
