Applebee's

Recently there have been scams involving Applebee's Gift Cards. If you see something that is too good to be true on the web or receive a chain email offering you a free Applebee's Gift Card or gift certificate, it's probably a scam.

You can buy Applebee's Gift Cards at any of our over 1900 restaurant locations nationwide, at a variety of traditional retailers, through select rewards programs, and on our secure website.

No. A fraudulent email chain message promising Applebee's^® Gift Certificates for forwarding the message is currently making its way around the Internet. The message promises a gift certificate and a confirmation number after forwarding the message to a specific number of email addresses. Applebee's^® International, Inc. does not sponsor or endorse this activity and is unable to fulfill these requests.

Applebee's^® does occasionally endorse providers of various online offers, such as credit cards, book clubs, and financial lenders, and allows them to offer free Applebee's Gift Cards. However, all inquiries about your free Applebee's^® Gift Cards should be directed to the organization that made the offer. We have no way of tracking your information, since such transactions take place between you and a particular vendor, not Applebee's Services, Inc.
