All gift card sales are final. If you are having an issue redeeming the gift card you purchased at the store, please contact our Kroger Customer Relations Center by phone at 1-866-544-8062 or email pa************@kr****.com to open a case for research and response. We escalate your request and information to our gift card processor who works with each retail merchant (e.g., Target, Home Depot, Google, Panera, etc.) to investigate and respond. This process may take up to 2 (two) weeks, and each retail merchant has its own policies for assisting customers.

Retailer gift cards do not have fees. The Visa® Gift card has 2 (two) fees associated with it, an Activation Fee (charged at the time of payment) and a Maintenance Fee (please see FAQ in this list). All gift cards do not have an expiration date.
