I fell into this latter camp – one of the Target gift cards I received said that it was tied to my account, while the other one showed up fine on the balance checker (although that too shows up on my account).Ī reader reached out to explain why this is happening and it made it much clearer. What was confusing is that some people didn’t have this happen at all, while other people only had this happen to one gift card. When checking the balance in incognito mode, it says “This gift card is connected to someone else’s account.” That doesn’t matter if you were intending on using the gift card(s) yourself, but it can cause problems when trying to resell the cards. Some people taking advantage of this online ended up having issues with the $15 Target gift cards though – myself included.

'In October, you redeemed a Target promo code, however we've become aware that some users may have had issues accessing their code.

After two users said there was a problem with their new cards with zero balance, I went to my 5 target cards that run from April to Oct and checked my balance on Target website - 4 cards were loaded properly one was 'empty'
