It has begun investigating the unauthorised access of data.
It said 5.8 million of the credit and debit cards had chip-and-pin protection and that pin codes had not been accessed.
As a result, about 105,000 non-EU cards, which were not chip-and-pin, had been compromised, it said.
Dixons Carphone said it had no evidence that any of the cards had been used fraudulently following the breach.
