The card works both in physical stores and online, which means you can browse from your couch or visit the mall. Check if there are any regional restrictions based on where you received the card, as some versions may only work in specific countries within the Middle East.<\/p>\n
Check the Expiry Date<\/strong><\/h3>\nNothing stings more than finding out your gift card expired just before you planned to use it. Most Shukran Gift Cards come with an expiry date printed on the back or mentioned in the digital version.<\/p>\n
You can verify the validity through the Shukran website or by asking staff at any participating store. Set a reminder on your phone a month before the expiry date so you don’t lose out on the balance. This simple step ensures you use every fils available to you.<\/p>\n
Shukran Gift Card: How to Track Your Balance?<\/h2>\n
![\"Shukran](\"https:\/\/ar-pay.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/10\/Track-Your-Balance.jpg\" "\\"\\"")
<\/p>\n
Knowing exactly how much you have left prevents surprises at checkout. You can check your Shukran Gift Card balance through:<\/p>\n
\n- The official Shukran website by entering your card details<\/li>\n
- The Shukran app after linking your card<\/li>\n
- At the payment counter before finalizing your purchase<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n
Checking your balance before heading out to shop helps you plan better. You’ll know if you need to bring extra payment methods or if you can cover your entire shopping list with the card alone.<\/p>\n
Combine with Sales & Promotions<\/h3>\n
Smart shoppers wait for the right moment to spend their gift cards. Seasonal sales offer the perfect opportunity to stretch your card’s value further.<\/p>\n
The best shopping periods include Ramadan sales, Eid promotions, and end-of-season clearances. During these times, you can grab items at 30% to 70% off. Your gift card essentially buys you more when prices drop.<\/p>\n
Many Landmark Group stores also let you earn Shukran Rewards points even when paying with a gift card. These points accumulate and turn into vouchers for future shopping. Some stores accept discount codes alongside gift card payments, though you should confirm this at checkout.<\/p>\n
Shukran Gift Card: Tips to maximise your experience<\/h2>\n
![\"Shukran](\"https:\/\/ar-pay.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/10\/Use-for-Essentials-Big-Purchases.jpg\" "\\"\\"")
<\/p>\n
Your Shukran Gift Card works best when spent on items you actually need. Think about your shopping list and prioritize:<\/p>\n
\n- Clothing basics that last multiple seasons<\/li>\n
- School supplies and kids’ wear from Babyshop<\/li>\n
- Kitchen essentials and storage solutions from Home Centre<\/li>\n
- Quality shoes that won’t need replacing soon<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n
When sales align with your needs, consider using the card for bigger purchases like furniture, electronics, or complete wardrobe updates. A sofa that costs AED 2,000 during regular days might drop to AED 1,400 during a promotion. Your gift card suddenly covers more than you expected.<\/p>\n
Split Payments for Flexibility<\/strong><\/h3>\nRunning short on your gift card balance shouldn’t stop you from completing a purchase. All Landmark Group stores accept split payments, meaning you can use your gift card for part of the bill and pay the rest with cash or credit.<\/p>\n
Let’s say you’re buying a dining table at Home Centre for AED 1,800, but your gift card only has AED 1,200 left. You can pay AED 1,200 with the card and cover the remaining AED 600 with another payment method. The cashier will process both transactions smoothly, and you walk away with your purchase.<\/p>\n
This flexibility helps you use up every bit of your gift card balance without feeling limited to items that match the exact amount left.<\/p>\n

The Shukran Gift Card gives you access to dozens of stores under one payment method. When you know where to use it, track the balance, time your purchases with sales, and combine payment methods smartly, you turn a simple gift card into a powerful shopping tool.<\/p>\n
The key is planning ahead and treating the card as real money that deserves thoughtful spending. Whether you need home essentials, family clothing, or baby products, these tips help you get maximum value from every dirham on that card. Your wallet will thank you for being strategic rather than impulsive.<\/p>\n

No, Shukran Gift Cards cannot be reloaded with additional funds. Once you spend the balance, the card becomes inactive. If you want more shopping power, you’ll need to purchase or receive a new gift card. Think of it as a one-time use card rather than a rechargeable wallet.<\/p>\n
What happens to my remaining balance if I return an item?<\/h3>\n
When you return a product purchased with a Shukran Gift Card, the refund goes back to the same card. The amount gets credited to your card balance, and you can use it for future purchases at any participating store. Keep your receipt and the gift card handy when making returns to ensure a smooth process.<\/p>\n
Can I use my Shukran Gift Card during online sales like White Friday?<\/h3>\n
Yes, your Shukran Gift Card works during all online sales events, including White Friday, Black Friday, and flash sales. Enter your card details at checkout just like you would during regular shopping days. This lets you grab discounted items while spending your gift card balance, which means double savings on already reduced prices.<\/p>\n![\"Follow](\"https:\/\/ar-pay.com\/blog\/wp-content\/themes\/wp-bootstrap-4-pro\/assets\/images\/follow-us-on-google-news-en.svg\" "\\"\\"")
