How Do I Transfer a CVS Gift Card to Another Account?

You can conveniently give someone the freedom to choose their gift through gift cards. CVS offers gift cards to clients for use in purchasing beauty and health items and household essentials. Sometimes you may no longer need your gift card and want to transfer it to another account. The transfer can be completed in simple steps, explained in this guide.

CVS Gift Card Transfer Process

The following steps will ensure a smooth transfer of your gift card:

1. Verify the Gift Card Balance

Checking your gift card balance before proceeding with the transfer is appropriate. Visit the CVS website and click "gift cards" at the bottom of the page. You'll need to specify the transfer amount; therefore, you should note the balance you have in your account.

2. Create or Log In to Your CVS Account

For the transfer, you should have an account on the CVS website. The recipient should also have an account; otherwise, the transfer will be unsuccessful. If you need an account, the creation process is simple.

To create an account:

• Visit the CVS website and click "Create an Account." Follow the prompts to complete the registration process. The prompts are straightforward to follow. You can log in once the account is ready.

• Once logged in to your CVS account, navigate to the "Gift Cards" section. Click the "Transfer Gift Card" option under "Manage Gift Cards" or a similar heading. This option allows you to proceed with the transfer.

3. Enter the Gift Card Information

You need to enter the gift card PIN and card number. Ensure you enter this information accurately, as errors may lead to transfer failure. You can repeat this step to transfer multiple gift card balances for each card.

When you're done entering the card information, you must choose the account to which you want to transfer the gift card. You can enter the recipient's email address associated with their CVS account or search for their account using their name or phone number. Once you have located the correct account, select it to proceed with the transfer.

4. Confirm the Transfer

Review the details to ensure the gift card information and recipient's account are correct before finalizing the transfer. If everything is accurate, click the "Confirm Transfer" button. This completes the process, and you'll receive a confirmation message once everything is done.

You should inform the gift recipient about the transfer and provide them with any necessary information.

5. Keep a Record of the Transfer and the Recipient

You need records of the gift card transfer, including the date, card number, and recipient's account information. This is helpful in case of any issue that may arise in the future, and a reference of the transfer is needed.

Contacting CVS Customer Support

If you encounter any issue you cannot handle alone; you can contact CVS customer support. You can quickly reach a support representative by calling CVS's toll-free customer support line. The line is open 24/7. Be prepared to provide information from both the old and new gift cards, including the 16-digit card numbers and four-digit PINs, if applicable. The agent may ask for the CVS Extra Care card number associated with the gift cards, if any.
