Check a Winners gift card balance on winners.ca: open the gift cards page, press Check Balance and enter the 19-digit card number and the CSC code. The same TJX Canada card works at Winners, HomeSense and Marshalls stores in Canada. When the balance runs short, a new Winners card from 5 CAD to 500 CAD can be bought with Bitcoin, USDT or 300+ other coins on Genghis.
This guide follows the steps Winners publishes, as read on winners.ca and the TJX Canada help pages on 15 October 2026. It covers where the two numbers sit, why a balance can look wrong, what the card pays for, and how to buy a new card with crypto when your money sits in a wallet instead of a bank account.
One detail answers half the questions people ask. A Winners card is a TJX Canada card, so the balance you check on winners.ca is the same money you can spend at HomeSense and Marshalls in Canada. You do not need three cards for three stores.
Balance too low for your next Winners trip?
Buy a new Winners gift card with Bitcoin, USDT or 300+ other coins, in values from 5 CAD to 500 CAD. No KYC at checkout, and the code appears on screen once your payment confirms. See the Winners Canada gift card
How to check your Winners gift card balance
Check the balance online through the Check Balance button on the winners.ca gift cards page, which needs the card number and the CSC code. Winners also lets you load the card into Apple Wallet or Google Wallet, so the card sits on your phone next to your other passes.
Online on winners.ca
Open the Winners gift cards page and scroll to Check your gift card balance. Press Check Balance. A balance window opens on a separate page run by the card processor, with two fields: the 19-digit card number, typed with no spaces, and the CSC code. Fill both in and press Check Balance again.
Winners says the window tells you exactly how much you have left. A single wrong digit returns an error, so read the numbers twice before you submit. If you mistype more than once, wait a little before trying again.
Where the card number and CSC code sit
On a plastic card, both numbers are on the back. On a card sent by email or text, they are in the message that delivered the card. A card bought on Genghis shows its details on screen after payment and in the link sent to your email, so keep that email until the card is spent.
In Apple Wallet or Google Wallet
The same section of winners.ca says you can load the card into your Apple or Google wallet. Once it is there, the card is on your phone at the register and you no longer hunt for the plastic. Check the balance on winners.ca first, so you know what is left before you add it.
By phone
For questions the balance window cannot answer, Winners lists customer service at 1-800-646-9466, Monday to Friday, 9:00 a.m. to 5:00 p.m. Eastern time. The contact page lists holiday hours and closures, so check it before you call near a public holiday.
Why a Winners balance can look wrong
A Winners balance usually looks wrong because of a typo, a card from another country, or spending at a sister store. Each has a simple check.
A digit out of place
The card number is long and the field takes no spaces. Retype it from the card itself, not from a photo, and check the CSC code separately.
A card from the United States
Marshalls in the United States is a sister company of Marshalls Canada, but TJX Canada says the two systems are not connected. A card bought for a US store does not show up in the Canadian balance window, and a Canadian card does not pay in the United States. Genghis sells separate cards for each country, so match the card to where you shop.
Spending at a sister store
Because one card pays at Winners, HomeSense and Marshalls in Canada, a household can drain it in a store you did not think of. If the balance is lower than expected, ask who else used the card last.
What a Winners gift card covers
A Winners gift card pays for purchases at any Winners, HomeSense and Marshalls store in Canada, and Winners sends it by mail, email or text. The rules below come from winners.ca and the TJX Canada help pages, read on 15 October 2026.
| Rule | What Winners and TJX Canada say |
|---|---|
| Where it works | Any Winners, HomeSense and Marshalls store in Canada |
| How it is sent | By mail, by email or by text |
| Balance check | Check Balance on winners.ca, with the 19-digit card number and the CSC code |
| Phone wallet | Can be loaded into Apple Wallet or Google Wallet |
| Returns | Gift cards are final sale |
| Outside Canada | TJX Canada gift cards are redeemable only in its stores across Canada |
| Customer service | 1-800-646-9466, Monday to Friday, 9:00 a.m. to 5:00 p.m. Eastern time |
Many people end up holding a Winners card without buying one. The TJX Canada return policy refunds some returns as a gift card: after 10 days with a receipt, and returns without a receipt. That is why a balance check is often the first step before the next trip to the store.
Why top up with crypto
Buying the new card with crypto skips the exchange, the bank transfer and the bank card. If most of your money is in crypto, the usual route means selling on an exchange, waiting for the transfer and then paying by card.
No bank card in the loop
You pay from your own wallet or from an exchange balance. No card number, no billing address and no bank statement line are part of the purchase on Genghis.
No KYC at checkout
No KYC at checkout: an email address is all we ask for. There is no document upload, no selfie and no proof of address. Purchase limits apply, and the how Genghis works page explains the full flow.
The code arrives on screen
Your code appears on screen as soon as the payment confirms on the network. We also email you a link to it. How long the confirmation takes depends on the network of the coin you pick.
Exact amounts, from 5 CAD
The Winners Canada card on Genghis comes in 20 values, from 5 CAD to 500 CAD. You can buy close to the gap between your balance and your cart instead of rounding up to one standard amount.
Points on every order
Orders placed with a free Genghis account earn Genghis Points, and a Point is worth $0.01 of discount at checkout. The rewards section below has the rules.
How to buy a Winners gift card with crypto in 6 steps
Open the Winners Canada page, pick the value and the coin, enter your email, send the amount, and copy the code once the payment confirms. Each step in detail:
- Open the Winners Canada page. Go to the Winners Canada gift card on Genghis. It is the card for stores in Canada.
- Pick the card value. Choose the face value in CAD that covers the gap between your balance and what you plan to buy.
- Choose your coin and network. Select Bitcoin, USDT, Solana, Monero or another of the 300+ coins, and the network you will send on.
- Enter your email address. This is where the link to your code goes. No account is required to buy.
- Send the exact amount. Copy the address or scan the QR code and send the amount shown, adding any withdrawal fee your wallet or exchange charges.
- Copy your code. Once the payment confirms, the card details appear on screen and a link arrives by email, ready to check on winners.ca and spend in store.
Match the card to your country
The Winners card is not a worldwide (WW) product. It works only in Canada, so it will not pay at a Marshalls store in the United States. Genghis sells a separate Marshalls USA gift card for US stores.
Winners, HomeSense and Marshalls gift card values on Genghis
Genghis sells Winners, HomeSense and Marshalls cards for Canada, each from 5 CAD to 500 CAD. The values below were read on the live product pages on 15 October 2026, when every Winners value was in stock. The price in crypto is shown at checkout and moves with exchange rates.
| Card | Works in | Face values |
|---|---|---|
| Winners Canada | Canada | 5, 7, 10, 15, 20, 25, 30, 35, 40, 50, 60, 75, 100, 125, 150, 200, 250, 300, 400 and 500 CAD |
| HomeSense Canada | Canada | From 5 CAD to 500 CAD |
| Marshalls Canada | Canada | From 5 CAD to 500 CAD |
Winners says its card already pays at all three chains, so the Winners card is the simplest pick. Other Canadian retail cards are in the Canada shopping gift cards category, and the Indigo gift card balance guide covers another Canadian card.
Three ways to get a new Winners card
With crypto in hand, buying the gift card directly is the shortest route; cashing out first or paying by crypto debit card also work. The table sets the routes side by side, including the one where cash wins.
| Route | What you need | Identity checks | Where it wins |
|---|---|---|---|
| Sell crypto on a custodial exchange, then pay by bank card | Exchange account, bank account, bank card | Usually full ID verification at the exchange | Useful if you already cash out regularly |
| Crypto debit card | A card program account and a funded balance | Usually ID verification by the card issuer | Works anywhere cards work, not only at one chain |
| Paying cash at a Winners register | Cash and a trip to a store | None | No crypto conversion at all, if you already hold cash |
| Buy the gift card with crypto on Genghis | A wallet or exchange balance and an email address | No KYC at checkout, within the purchase limits | Straight from wallet to card, in values from 5 CAD |
The honest trade-off: a crypto debit card spends everywhere, and a gift card spends at one group of stores. If Winners, HomeSense or Marshalls is where the money is going anyway, the gift card is the shorter path.
Canada ranks #2 of 79 countries on the Rails Ranking but #36 on the Livability Ranking, where need for crypto counts (Genghis Research, 2026). The spending rails are among the best measured; what holders lack is a short path from wallet to store. The Canada Crypto Livability Index page has the full scoreboard.
Shopping for the home?
The HomeSense Canada card comes in values from 5 CAD to 500 CAD, paid with Bitcoin, USDT or 300+ coins. See the HomeSense Canada gift card
Which crypto to pay with
Pay with the coin you already hold: a stablecoin keeps the value steady, Solana confirms sooner than Bitcoin, and Monero keeps the payment private. Genghis accepts 300+ cryptocurrencies. The amount in your coin is shown before you pay. It includes our exchange-rate margin; a network cost applies only to USDT on Tron and to Monero. The quote holds for about 20 minutes; the rate is not locked.
Bitcoin (BTC)
The default for many holders. The code appears once the Bitcoin block confirms your payment. The Bitcoin gift card page covers the details.
USDT and USDC
Stablecoins keep the dollar value steady between quote and payment. USDT on Tron adds a network cost that checkout shows before you choose. See buying gift cards with USDT.
Solana (SOL)
Solana confirms sooner than Bitcoin, so it suits buyers who want the code without waiting for Bitcoin blocks. The Solana gift card page lists how it works.
Ethereum (ETH)
Supported on the networks listed at checkout. Pick the network your wallet actually holds the coins on, since coins sent on a different network can be lost.
Monero (XMR)
For buyers who want the payment itself to stay private. Monero adds a network cost shown at checkout. The Monero gift card page explains how it works.
How to redeem the code
Present the card at the register of a Winners, HomeSense or Marshalls store in Canada, like any other Winners card. You can load it into your phone wallet first. Any balance left stays on the card, and you can check it again with the steps above.
Keep the delivery email until the balance reaches zero. It holds the link to your card details if you lose track of the numbers.
Is it safe
Yes, as long as the card is for you or a gift, never a payment someone demands. Nobody legitimate asks to be paid in gift cards for a tax bill, a fine or an emergency, and a card number shared with a stranger can be spent by them.
On the Genghis side, payments are non-custodial: Genghis never holds your crypto. The security page documents what data is kept, and the AML and purchase limits page sets out the limits. If a code fails, the refund policy sets out what happens next.
Earn Genghis Points on the purchase
Yes, orders placed with a free Genghis account earn Points, and a new account starts with 100 Points. A Point is worth $0.01 of discount at checkout, the balance never expires, and there is no KYC to earn or redeem.
Points become spendable once your account has $25 in completed orders. Guest checkouts do not earn Points. The Genghis rewards page has the full rules.
