   Select Gift. You can find this to the right of the Purchase button.

4. 4

   Select a friend. You can find your friend from the list or use the search bar.

   • If a friend already owns the item, you'll see OWNED in green font where the price would be.

   Confirm your purchase. If you don't have enough V-Bucks in your account, you'll be asked to add more first.

   • The gift will be sent immediately.
