What a TGI Fridays gift card gets you
Beyond dine-in tabs, the same TGI Fridays gift card pays for to-go and delivery orders placed directly through tgifridays.com or the Fridays app, and it covers the full check including appetizers, the bar, and the tip when you pay at the table. There are no activation or per-purchase fees, and the balance never erodes from a dormancy charge — unlike a bank-issued Visa or Mastercard gift card.
two formats:
- Physical card: Mailed in a gift sleeve, redeemable at any participating TGI Fridays restaurant. $10 to $500 per card via tgifridays.com.
- E-gift card: Emailed within minutes, shown on your phone in the restaurant or entered online for pickup and delivery. $25 to $500 via Dyme; $10 to $500 via tgifridays.com.
You can apply more than one gift card to a single check in the restaurant — hand both to your server. Online, the app accepts one stored gift card per order, so combine balances onto one card first if you're paying digitally.

Can I get a TGI Fridays gift card at a discount?
Yes, but not through Dyme. Dyme sells TGI Fridays e-gift cards at face value; the value-add is Dyme Miles and instant paperless delivery, not a face-value discount. The discount channels are:
- Costco or Sam's Club, in store. Periodic multi-pack TGI Fridays cards at a discount, often sold as a bundle of restaurant cards. Supply rotates and isn't always available. Physical only, club membership required.
- Secondary marketplaces (Raise, CardCash). Resold gift cards from third parties, typically a few percent below face value. Verify the balance before redeeming, since secondary sellers occasionally list cards with partial balances.
- TGI Fridays bonus-card promotions. During the winter holidays, TGI Fridays periodically gives a free bonus card with a qualifying gift-card purchase. The bonus card usually has a redemption window, so read the dates.
The bigger combined return comes from the rewards stack below: your credit card, Fridays Rewards on the meal, and Dyme Miles on the purchase. Most buyers leave that money on the table.
How to stack rewards
Three rewards programs fire on a single TGI Fridays gift card purchase through Dyme.
Your credit card earns rewards on the Dyme purchase.
Gift-card resellers typically code as MCC 5947; many cards exclude this MCC from category bonuses, so a dining multiplier usually won't apply to the gift-card purchase even though TGI Fridays is a restaurant.
Free to join. Earns at redemption, not on the gift card purchase.
Fridays Rewards does not earn on the gift card purchase. It earns when you spend the card on a meal, at the same rate as paying with cash or credit — so link your Fridays Rewards account at checkout. Program terms →
Earn 1 Mile for every dollar you spend, and 5 Miles per dollarduring special offers — the layer the other channels can't match.
Illustrative only. Card rates, brand-program terms, and Dyme Miles offers change and vary by member; figures above are examples, not a guarantee of value.

How to buy on tgifridays.com
- Go to tgifridays.com/gift-cards.
- Choose physical or e-gift, then pick a design and the amount.
- Add to cart and check out. TGI Fridays does not run a standing member discount on gift cards, and Fridays Rewards points do not accrue on gift-card purchases — only on the meal you redeem the card against.
How to buy in store
Any participating TGI Fridays restaurant sells physical gift cards at the host stand or bar. Tell the staff the amount you want, pay with cash, credit, or another gift card, and walk out with the card. You can load any whole-dollar amount from $10 to $500.
How to buy at Costco, Sam's Club, or a supermarket
Costco and Sam's Club periodically run multi-pack TGI Fridays gift cards at a discount, sometimes bundled with other restaurant brands. Stock and pricing rotate. Supermarket gift-card racks at Kroger, Safeway, Albertsons, and similar chains carry $25 and $50 TGI Fridays cards at face value. You pay no discount but earn the supermarket's loyalty points and any fuel rewards that apply to gift-card purchases.
Designs and personalization
Physical cards: a handful of designs in the TGI Fridays online catalog, including seasonal and celebration options. A gift sleeve and a printed personal message are available at checkout.
E-gift cards: multiple designs, a customizable subject line, and a recipient message.
There is no co-branded option for individual purchase. For bulk and business orders, see corporate ordering below.
Delivery and timing
- E-gift via Dyme: 1 to 60 minutes by email. Show it on your phone in the restaurant or enter the number for online orders.
- E-gift via tgifridays.com: 1 to 60 minutes by email.
- Physical via tgifridays.com: 5 to 10 business days standard. Express options available at checkout.

Corporate and bulk buying
TGI Fridays runs a corporate and bulk gift-card program for businesses buying in volume — employee rewards, client gifts, and incentive programs — with custom amounts and bulk invoicing. Contact the TGI Fridays gift-card team to set up a bulk order.
