GrubHub is an online food ordering and delivery platform that allows customers to order food from a variety of restaurants and have it delivered to their location. Gift cards can be a convenient way to pay for food orders on GrubHub, but it is important to understand the limitations and restrictions that may apply.
Unfortunately, it is not possible to use a Visa gift card or restaurant gift card on GrubHub. This is because GrubHub does not accept any prepaid cards as payment and visa gift cards are considered a form of prepaid card.
Can I Use a Visa Gift Card on GrubHub
Looks like using that Visa gift card on GrubHub is a non-starter. It’s a bit of a bummer, but it’s all for the sake of keeping GrubHub’s profits in-house. You see, GrubHub can’t accept prepaid Visa gift cards just like they can’t accept restaurant gift cards. That’s because these cards are already prepaid to another vendor and GrubHub will not receive any money from the transaction.
In other words, if you’ve already paid the total profit to another service, it won’t be available to GrubHub. So unfortunately, GrubHub cannot take any prepaid cards, including visas, as a payment.
Can I Use a Restaurant Gift Card on GrubHub
No, you cannot use a restaurant gift card on GrubHub. You see, GrubHub is like a delivery “middle-man” and they want their cut of the profit, but when you’ve already paid for that scrumptious meal with a gift card, GrubHub is unable to profit from the order if a restaurant gift card is used.
This means, even if the restaurant is available on GrubHub and you want to order from them, you will not be able to use the restaurant gift card to place the order.
So, if you’re looking to use that gift card from Joe’s Pizza Palace, Chick-fil-A, McDonald’s, Starbucks, Chipotle or any other restaurant on GrubHub, you’re out of luck. But, never fear! You can still use those gift card at their own restaurant directly, whether it’s for dine-in, pick-up or even carry-out. And if you’re looking to use a gift card on GrubHub, they’ve got you covered with their own gift cards which can be used on any restaurant on their app.
GrubHub does offer its own gift cards which can be used for any restaurant on the app, or you can pay with any major credit or debit card. If you have a restaurant gift card, it is recommended to use it directly with the restaurant through in-store or pick-up orders.

Can you use a Taco Bell gift card through Grubhub?
It is currently not possible to use a Taco Bell gift card through GrubHub. The gift cards can only be used at participating Taco Bell locations, or through the Taco Bell website or mobile app. This means that if you want to use your Taco Bell gift card to place an order on GrubHub, you will have to redeem it in-store or through the Taco Bell website or app and then place your GrubHub order using a different form of payment. It’s worth noting that gift cards from individual restaurant chains can only be used with that particular chain and not with any other platforms like GrubHub.
Can I Use Other Prepaid Cards on Grubhub?
No, other prepaid cards are also not accepted at GrubHub. This includes prepaid debit cards, as well as any other form of non-GrubHub card. For the same reason that GrubHub cannot accept Visa gift cards, it will not be able to take these other prepaid cards either.
Conclusion
It is unfortunately not possible to use a visa gift card on GrubHub as payment for orders. This is because GrubHub does not accept any prepaid cards, including restaurant gift cards and Visa gift cards.
As a result, it is also not possible to convert your Visa gift card to a GrubHub gift card.
Alternatively, GrubHub offers its own gift cards, which can be used for any restaurants on the app.
