National Theatre Credit Vouchers issued since 1 April 2019 have been converted to credit on customers' accounts. You can use your credit in three simple steps:

• Log-in to your account, add tickets to your basket and click ‘apply my credit to this order’ during checkout.
• Your credit will be used towards payment, and the basket amount will be deducted from your remaining online credit balance.
• We will keep track of your updated balance, so there is no need for you to retain Credit Voucher numbers.

Please Note: American Express Cardmember pre-sale bookings and reserved seating can only be paid for with an American Express card - NT Gift and Credit Vouchers, and Theatre Tokens, cannot be used as payment for these benefits.

We cannot accept gift vouchers or gift cards issued by other third parties such as ticket agents. Please refer to the voucher issuer for details about redeeming these vouchers.
