How to Redeem a Cabela's Gift Card
At checkout online, in store, or by phone — and what to do if a card won't apply
A Cabela's gift card is a payment method, not a code you load to an account. Apply it at checkout with the card number and PIN — at cabelas.com, at basspro.com, or in person — and use it across both Cabela's and Bass Pro Shops.
Quick Answer: Using Your Cabela’s Gift Card
To redeem a Cabela’s gift card, add your items to the cart at cabelas.com or basspro.com, continue to the Method of Payment screen, and enter the gift card number and PIN. The card pays toward your order total right away, and the same card also works in any U.S. Cabela’s or Bass Pro Shops store.
Where to Use Your Cabela’s Gift Card
A Cabela’s gift card is applied directly to an order as a form of payment — there is no separate account to load it onto. You can use it online at either storefront, hand it to a cashier in store, or read the number and PIN to an Outfitter over the phone. Because Cabela’s and Bass Pro Shops share one gift card program, a card issued by either brand spends at both.
Online at cabelas.com or basspro.com
Online checkout is the most common path, and the same flow works on either site since both run on the shared program.
- Go to cabelas.com or basspro.com and add your items to the cart.
- Proceed to checkout and continue to the Method of Payment screen.
- Choose the gift card payment option, then enter your gift card number and PIN.
- Apply the card to the order. To use more than one card, enter each card number and PIN in turn.
- If the order total is higher than the card balance, pay the remainder with another accepted payment method and complete the order.
Keep the gift card or the number and PIN until your order arrives, in case you need to reference it for a return or balance question.
In Store or by Phone
Use this when you are shopping a U.S. Cabela’s or Bass Pro Shops location, or placing a catalog order over the phone.
- For a physical card, hand it to the cashier to apply it to your purchase.
- For an eGift card, print the delivery email or save the image showing the gift card number and PIN, and present it to be scanned.
- For a phone order, call Cabela’s at 1-800-237-4444 or Bass Pro Shops at 1-800-227-7776 and read the card number and PIN to the Outfitter when asked for payment.
If your card has a gray coating over the PIN, scratch it off carefully before checkout so the cashier or website can read the full PIN.
What You Can Buy with a Cabela’s Gift Card
A Cabela’s gift card spends like cash across the Cabela’s and Bass Pro Shops catalog — hunting and fishing gear, camping and outdoor equipment, apparel, footwear, and boating and marine supplies. It also covers dining at Cabela’s and Bass Pro Shops restaurants and purchases at Bass Pro–affiliated resorts such as Big Cedar Lodge.
The card is not tied to a single product or category, which is what makes it a flexible gift for an outdoor enthusiast. It draws down to zero as you spend and any unused balance stays on the card for a later trip.
- Use it for: outdoor gear, apparel, footwear, marine and camping equipment, and dining across Cabela’s and Bass Pro Shops.
- Best match: a hunter, angler, or camper who would rather pick their own gear than receive a single item.
Why Your Cabela’s Gift Card Code Isn’t Working
A Cabela’s card is declined at checkout for a short list of reasons. Work through these before contacting support — each one has a quick check on the card or the entry.
The card number or PIN was mistyped
Re-enter the gift card number and PIN exactly as printed, with no extra spaces. On a physical card the PIN sits under a gray scratch-off panel on the back — if you have not removed that coating yet, scratch it off carefully to reveal the full PIN before trying again.
The card has little or no balance left
If the card has already been spent down, there is nothing left to apply. Check the remaining balance before checkout; if a card shows a partial balance, the website lets you cover the rest of the order with a second card or another payment method.
A card bought at a third-party store wasn’t activated
Cabela’s notes that, in rare cases, gift cards sold through a third-party merchant such as Walgreens or Safeway may not have been activated correctly at the register. If a card from one of those stores won’t work at all, return to the merchant that sold it for a refund. Cards purchased from MyGiftCardSupply are delivered ready to use.
Where to Buy a Cabela’s Gift Card Online
Shoppers come back for another Cabela’s gift card after spending the first one down, or land here while planning a gift for someone who hunts, fishes, or camps. Because the card works across both Cabela’s and Bass Pro Shops, one card covers the entire outdoor catalog without committing the recipient to a single store or item.
