  • Applebee’s has many partners distributing digital and plastic gift cards.
  • Applebee’s Gift Cards are only applicable and eligible for purchases at Applebee’s restaurant locations. Other businesses do not accept payments in the form of Applebee’s Gift Cards.
  • Do not purchase an Applebee’s Gift Card if the packaging appears to be manipulated, ripped or altered, or the PIN has been scratched off. If you notice anything suspicious about the packaging of an Applebee’s Gift Card, bring it up with the store management.
