Where to find the Target Redcard login page
The Target Redcard login lives on Target's main website, not on a separate banking portal. Go to target.com, then look for "Account" in the top right corner of the page. Click it, and you'll see a "Sign In" option. From there, select "Redcard" to reach the credit card login screen.
You can also navigate directly to redcard.target.com, which takes you straight to the Redcard login page. Either route gets you to the same place — you'll enter your username or email address and password to access your account.
If you're logging in on a mobile device, the Target app has a built-in Redcard section. Open the app, tap "Account" at the bottom, then select "Redcard" to sign in there instead of using a browser.
Key Takeaways
- Target Redcard login is found on target.com under the Account menu, or directly at redcard.target.com.
- You'll need your username or email address and password — the same credentials you use for your Target.com shopping account if you have one.
- Once logged in, you can view your balance, recent transactions, payment due dates, and make payments directly from your account dashboard.
- If you forget your password, use the "Forgot Password" link on the login page to reset it using your email address.
- The Target app also has a Redcard login option if you prefer to manage your card through your phone.
What you need to log in
You'll need two pieces of information: your username or the email address associated with your Redcard account, and your password. If you set up a Target.com account when you opened your Redcard, those same login details work for the Redcard portal.
If you don't remember your username or email, check any welcome letter or statement you received from Target when your card was approved. The email address on file is usually printed there. If you can't find it, you can still use the "Forgot Password" link — Target will send a reset link to the email address connected to your account, which confirms you have access to it.
Resetting a forgotten password
Click "Forgot Password" on the Redcard login page. Enter the email address or username associated with your account. Target will send a password reset link to that email address — check your inbox and spam folder if you don't see it within a few minutes.
Click the link in the email, and you'll be taken to a page where you can create a new password. Make it something you can remember but others can't guess. Once you've set the new password, return to the login page and sign in with your email address and the new password.
If you don't receive a reset email after 10 minutes, double-check that you entered the correct email address. If the address is wrong, you may need to contact Target's customer service to verify your identity and update your account email before you can reset your password.
What you can do once you're logged in
Your Redcard account dashboard shows your current balance, credit limit, and available credit at a glance. You can view your transaction history going back several months, which helps you track spending and spot any charges you don't recognize.
The account also displays your payment due date and minimum payment amount. You can make a payment directly from the portal using a bank account or debit card. Most payments process within one to two business days, though you should plan ahead if your due date is coming up soon.
You can also update your contact information, change your password, set up account alerts (like notifications when your statement is ready), and review your credit limit and interest rate from the same dashboard.
Troubleshooting login problems
If you're getting an error message when you try to log in, first make sure you're using the correct email address or username. Passwords are case-sensitive, so check that Caps Lock is off and that you're typing it exactly as you set it.
If you're still locked out after a few attempts, your account may be temporarily blocked for security reasons. Wait 15 to 30 minutes and try again. If the problem continues, or if you see a message saying your account is locked, you'll need to contact Target's customer service by phone or through the Target app to unlock it.
If you're using a public or shared computer, clear your browser's cache and cookies before logging in again. Sometimes stored data from previous sessions can interfere with login. You can also try a different browser or device to rule out a technical issue on your end.
Keeping your login find
Never share your password with anyone, including Target employees or customer service representatives. Target will never ask you for your full password over the phone or email. If someone claiming to be from Target asks for it, that's a sign of a scam.
Use a password that's at least 8 characters long and includes a mix of uppercase letters, lowercase letters, numbers, and symbols. Avoid using personal information like your birthday or address. If you use the same password for multiple accounts, change your Redcard password to something unique.
Log out of your account when you're finished, especially if you're using a shared computer. Most browsers have an option to not save your password — use that setting on public devices. If you notice any unauthorized transactions on your statement, report them to Target right away through your account or by calling customer service.
