What a StubHub gift card gets you
A few things to know before you gift one: StubHub is a resale marketplace, so prices float with demand and the card buys whatever a seller has listed, including the buyer fees that show at checkout. The balance applies to the order total, so a recipient can put a card toward part of a pricier ticket and cover the rest with a credit card. There are no per-use fees on the card, and most states bar expiration on the underlying funds.
one format:
- E-gift card: Emailed within minutes, redeemable at stubhub.com checkout. $25 to $500 via Dyme; broader range via StubHub directly.
You can apply a StubHub gift card to part of an order and pay the remainder with a credit card if the ticket total exceeds the balance.

Can I get a StubHub gift card at a discount?
Yes, but not through Dyme. Dyme sells StubHub e-gift cards at face value; the value-add is Dyme Miles and instant delivery, not a face-value discount. The discount routes are:
- Secondary marketplaces (Raise, CardCash). Resold StubHub cards from third parties, sometimes a few percent below face value. Verify the balance before you use it, since secondary sellers occasionally list partial-balance cards.
- Retail rack bonus offers. Grocery and big-box chains occasionally bundle a store coupon or bonus fuel points with rack gift cards. The card stays at face value, but you net the retailer's perk.
- StubHub price drops. Because pricing is demand-driven, ticket prices often fall as an event nears. A gift card bought now buys those lower-priced tickets later, which is the most dependable way to stretch the dollar.
The bigger combined return comes from the rewards stack below: your credit card and Dyme Miles on the purchase. StubHub has no standing consumer points program, so those two layers are where the extra value sits.
How to stack rewards
Two rewards programs fire on a single StubHub gift card purchase through Dyme.

How to buy at Costco, Sam's Club, or a supermarket
Supermarket and big-box gift-card racks at chains like Kroger, Safeway, and Walmart sometimes carry physical StubHub cards, typically in $25 to $100 denominations. They cost face value, but you earn the store's loyalty points and any fuel rewards that apply to gift-card purchases. Costco and Sam's Club do not regularly stock StubHub multi-packs.
Designs and personalization
E-gift cards: StubHub's event-themed card art with a customizable subject line and a recipient message; well suited to last-minute gifting before a big game or show.
Rack cards, where stocked, use standard StubHub card art; the value lives in the code you add to your account.
There is no co-branded or personalized-photo option for individual orders. For bulk orders, see corporate ordering below.
Delivery and timing
- E-gift via Dyme: 1 to 60 minutes by email. The recipient adds it to a StubHub account and applies it at checkout.

Dyme does not mail physical cards, and StubHub distributes gift cards digitally. If you need a card in hand, a retail aisle is the path where stocked.
Corporate and bulk buying
StubHub offers bulk gift-card ordering for employee rewards, client gifts, and event incentives, with volume ordering and invoicing. Tickets make a flexible reward, since the recipient picks the event. Contact StubHub's gift-card team to set up a corporate order.
