If I Don't Claim an 7-11 Gift Card, What Happens?

Like many convenience store chains, 7-Eleven offers gift cards for customers to purchase either as a gift for someone else or for their own use, but what happens when a gift card is unclaimed? You can find out more about products, services, promotions and rewards programs by calling 7-Eleven customer support, and below is information on 7-Eleven gift cards.

About 7-Eleven Gift Cards

Unlike other store cards, 7-Eleven gift cards can expire. The expiration date is included on the receipt when the gift card is purchased, so it's important to note this date when you buy one. Gift cards can be purchased at any 7-Eleven location or online and can be an electronic card or a classic card.

When the 7-Eleven Gift Card Is Unclaimed

When the card goes unclaimed, whether it is just forgotten or is lost or stolen, you need to know the following:

• Since 7-Eleven cards do expire, if they are unclaimed or unused by the expiration date, the amount on the card will be forfeited.
• If you purchased the card for someone else and they don't claim the card, you can use it for your own purchases.
• When you purchased the card for your own use and the card is lost or stolen, call 7-Eleven customer support and provide the required proof of purchase and other information requested to get a replacement card.
• Gift cards can be used for product purchases; however, gift cards cannot be used to purchase other gift cards.
• Reach out to the recipient to remind them of the gift card and the expiration date. They may have simply forgotten about it and will use it before the funds are gone.

An unclaimed gift card can be an inconvenience and can result in loss of funds when the card expires before being claimed. To avoid losing money, make sure you or the recipient get the most out of the card by using it before it expires. When the card is lost or stolen, contact 7-Eleven customer support right away to get a replacement card.
