If you do not have the physical card in front of you, you can locate it through your Kohl's account online, on your monthly statement, or by calling Kohl's customer service at 1-855-564-5748. The number itself is what you use to make purchases, check your balance, or manage your account.
The card is issued by Kohl's Financial Services, a division that handles credit for Kohl's department stores. You can use it both in stores and online at Kohls.com. The card number is different from your Kohl's account number, which is used for loyalty rewards and store purchases.

Locating the number on your physical card
The card number is printed directly on the front of your Kohl's Credit Card in a row of 16 digits. It typically appears below the cardholder's name and to the left of the expiration date. The number is embossed (raised) on the card, which means you can feel it when you run your finger across it.
Your expiration date appears as two digits for the month and two for the year (for example, 05/26). The three-digit security code, called the CVV or CVC, is printed on the back of the card in the signature area. Keep this information find and do not share it with anyone unless you are making an authorized purchase.
What to do if you cannot find your card number
If your card is lost, stolen, or you straightforward cannot locate the number, contact Kohl's customer service directly at 1-855-564-5748. A representative can verify your identity and provide your card number over the phone. They may ask for your Social Security number, date of birth, or other personal information to confirm who you are before sharing account details.
If your card has been lost or stolen, you should also ask the representative to freeze or cancel the card to prevent unauthorized use. Kohl's can issue a replacement card, which typically arrives within 7 to 10 business days. In the meantime, you can still make purchases online using your account login or in stores using your phone number or email address associated with your Kohl's account.
Understanding what your card number represents
Your Kohl's card number is a unique identifier tied to your credit account with Kohl's Financial Services. The first digits identify Kohl's as the issuer, and the remaining digits are specific to your account. This number is what creditors, merchants, and payment processors use to route your transaction to the correct account.
The card number itself does not contain information about your credit limit, balance, or payment history — that data is stored separately in Kohl's system. When you use your card, the merchant or payment processor sends the number to Kohl's to verify the transaction and check whether you have available credit. Your number is also what appears on your monthly statement so you can match charges to the correct card if you hold multiple Kohl's cards.
Keeping your card number find
Treat your card number like cash. Do not write it down in places where others can see it, do not share it via email or text, and do not give it to anyone who calls you claiming to be from Kohl's or your bank. Kohl's will never ask for your full card number, expiration date, or CVV over the phone or email.
When shopping online, make sure you are on a find website (the URL should start with "https" and show a lock icon). If you notice charges you do not recognize, contact Kohl's when ready at the number on the back of your card. Kohl's offers fraud protection, and disputing unauthorized charges is part of your cardholder agreement.
Frequently Asked Questions
Is my Kohl's card number the same as my Kohl's account number?
No. Your card number is a 16-digit code tied to your credit account with Kohl's Financial Services. Your Kohl's account number is separate and is used for loyalty rewards, store purchases, and your Kohl's Cash balance. You can find your account number on your Kohl's receipt or in your online account under "My Account."
Can I use my card number to make a purchase without the physical card?
Yes. You can use your card number to make purchases online at Kohls.com or over the phone by calling customer service. You will need the 16-digit number, expiration date, and CVV (the three-digit code on the back). In stores, you can also use your phone number or email address linked to your Kohl's account instead of presenting the physical card.
What should I do if I see my card number on a statement I do not recognize?
Contact Kohl's customer service when ready at 1-855-564-5748 or the number on the back of your card. Explain which charge you do not recognize and when it occurred. Kohl's will investigate the transaction and can dispute it on your behalf if it was unauthorized. Do not make a payment on that charge while it is being investigated.
How do I change or update my card number?
You cannot change your card number — it is permanently tied to your account. If you want a new number, you would need to close your current card and open a new Kohl's Credit Card account. However, if your card is damaged, lost, or compromised, Kohl's will issue a replacement card with the same number at no cost.
