Gift cards for diners

No. Balances are shown only for cards in your Selflane account; there's no lookup by card number. Instead: Open the gift email and tap Add to my account, then see the balance under Account › Gift cards.

No. Gift cards pay for food orders, online and in the restaurant, at the restaurant that issued them and the other businesses in its rewards program. They can't pay for reservations, event tickets or other gift cards. Instead: Pay those with a saved card, or Apple Pay or Google Pay.

No. Gift cards are applied from your Selflane account at checkout, so you need to be signed in with the card in your account. There's no field to type a gift card number. Instead: Sign in, add the gift card to your account from its email, then tap its balance under Pay with gift card. In the restaurant, show the card's QR code instead.
