Wondering if you purchased the gift card from Apple:
If you purchased the gift card from Apple as if it was for yourself:
See Apple Support's article: Check your gift card balance - Apple Support
If needed:
Call Apple on Call 1‑800‑MY‑APPLE
or
See a list of Apple support and service phone numbers around the world:
Contact Apple for support and service - Apple Support
If you sent a Gift Card from Apple as a gift to your sister:
If the recipient can't find the email with the redeem button, you can resend the gift.
There's a How to: "Resend a gift" section in the following article:
Gift apps, media, and more from Apple - Apple Support

If you did not purchase the gift card from Apple itself:
There's an article warning: About Gift Card Scams - Official Apple Support
Eg: says:
"If you believe you're the victim of a scam involving Apple Gift Cards, App Store & iTunes Gift Cards, or Apple Store Gift Cards, you can call Apple at 800-275-2273 (U.S.) and say "gift cards" when prompted".

Trouble-shooting: If you have the serial number and receipt
See what to do: If you can't redeem your Apple Gift Card or App Store & iTunes Gift Card - Apple Support

It seems from the question you posted, you are still using iOS 11 on your iPhone 7 plus
The more up-to-date a device is. generally the more secure it is. (iPhone 7 plus can update to iOS 15.8.2)
If you wish: you can check for updates in Settings > General > Software updates.
(NB: it is always wise to back-up your data before updating).
All the best :-)
