Buying a gift for someone who loves fashion can be stressful. What if they don’t like your choice? A ZARA gift card1 seems like the perfect solution. But can you get one directly from a store?
Yes, you can buy a ZARA gift card in-store2. Most ZARA locations sell physical gift cards at the checkout counter, which can be used both in-store and online. Availability may vary by country and specific store policies.
I remember struggling to find a last-minute gift and realizing a ZARA gift card was the easiest option. But I also had questions—how do these cards work, and are there any restrictions? Let’s break it down.
How to get a ZARA card?
Getting a ZARA gift card is simple, but there are different options depending on where and how you want to purchase it.
You can get a ZARA gift card online through their official website or in-store at any participating ZARA location. ZARA offers both physical and digital gift cards, which can be customized and delivered via email or traditional mail.
Buying a ZARA gift card online
If you prefer digital options, you can order a ZARA e-gift card from their website. You choose the amount, enter the recipient’s email, and add a personalized message. The recipient receives the card instantly or on a scheduled date.
Getting a ZARA gift card in-store
If you want a physical card, visit a ZARA store. Most locations have gift cards available at checkout. You can load the card with a specific amount and get a printed receipt for confirmation.
Are there any restrictions?
Feature | Physical Gift Card | Digital Gift Card |
---|---|---|
Purchase Location | In-store only | Online only |
Delivery Method | Hand delivery | |
Custom Message | No | Yes |
Availability | Limited to certain stores | Always available |
Can I buy a ZARA gift card for someone in another country?
ZARA operates in multiple countries, but not all gift cards work everywhere.
Yes, you can buy a ZARA gift card for someone in another country, but the card must be purchased in the recipient’s country’s currency. Cross-border usage is restricted, meaning a U.S. gift card won’t work in Europe.
Country-Specific Gift Cards
ZARA gift cards are tied to the country where they were purchased. If you buy one in the U.S., it can only be used in U.S. stores or the U.S. website. The same rule applies to Europe, Australia, and other regions.
How to buy for someone abroad?
If you want to send a ZARA gift card internationally:
- Visit the ZARA website of the recipient’s country.
- Purchase a digital gift card in that currency.
- Enter their email for direct delivery.
Is it safe to buy gift cards in stores?
Gift cards can be convenient, but are they secure?
Yes, it is generally safe to buy ZARA gift cards in-store. However, to avoid scams, always purchase from official ZARA stores or their website. Avoid buying from third-party sellers unless they are trusted retailers.
Risks of Buying Gift Cards
Some scammers tamper with gift cards in stores by copying the card numbers and waiting for them to be activated. To stay safe:
- Always check the card packaging for signs of tampering.
- Buy directly from the ZARA counter rather than display racks.
- Keep your receipt in case of issues.
Online vs. In-Store Safety

Risk of Tampering | Possible | None |
Immediate Use | Yes | Yes |

Where does a ZARA gift card work?
Not all ZARA gift cards work everywhere, so knowing their limitations is important.
ZARA gift cards can be used in the country where they were purchased, both online and in physical stores. They are not valid for use in other countries due to currency and regional restrictions.
Online and In-Store Usage
A U.K. ZARA gift card works at ZARA stores in the U.K. and on the U.K. website. The same applies to other regions like the U.S., Spain, and Australia.
Exceptions and Limitations
Some special edition or promotional ZARA gift cards may have additional restrictions. Always check the terms when purchasing.
Conclusion
Yes, you can buy a ZARA gift card in-store, but availability varies by location. If you're buying for someone abroad, ensure you purchase in their local currency. Gift cards are generally safe if bought from official sources, and they work only in the country of purchase.
