Can You Gift Someone in VALORANT?

Yes. You can gift certain items directly from the in-game store to friends on the same game shard.

What you can currently gift:

• Featured Store bundles (or individual items from those bundles)
• Current VCT / Esports store capsules and bundles (usually as complete packs)
• Valorant Points (VP) — PC only

What you cannot gift:

• Skins or items you already own in your collection
• Daily Store or Night Market items
• Battle Pass
• Radianite Points or Kingdom Credits
• Content the recipient already owns (the system blocks duplicates; bundle prices adjust automatically if they own some items)

Gifting is a one-way purchase for someone else — it is not a trading system.

Valorant Gifting Requirements & Eligibility

Before you can send (or receive) a gift, both players must meet these official rules:

• The gifter’s account must be at least level 15.
• Both players must have been friends for at least one week (7 days).
• Neither account can be serving a long or permanent ban.
• Both players must be on the same game shard (NA, LATAM, BR, EU/EMEA, KR, or AP).
• Extra regional restrictions apply in some countries (e.g., players in the Philippines, Indonesia, Thailand, and Vietnam can only gift within that group; similar limits exist for Turkey, Russia, Ukraine, Iran, Egypt, etc.).
• You cannot gift an item the recipient already owns.
• Daily limit: up to 10 gifts per day.
• VP gifting is available only on PC. You cannot gift VP from your existing balance — you must purchase new VP to send.

These rules help prevent abuse and fraud.

How to Gift Skins (and Bundles) in VALORANT – Step-by-Step

1. Open the Store tab in VALORANT.
2. Select a Featured Store bundle (or an eligible Esports/VCT item).
3. Click the Gift button (usually in the bottom-right corner).

4. Choose your friend from the list (only eligible friends will appear).

5. Select whether you want to gift the full bundle or individual item(s).

6. Confirm the adjusted price (it will drop if they already own part of the bundle) and complete the purchase.

The gift is sent immediately. Your friend will see a notification the next time they log in and can Accept or Reject it.

How to Gift Valorant Points (VP) On PC

you can also gift VP packs:

1. Click the VP icon near your balance.
2. Select a VP pack amount.
3. Click the Gift option next to the price.

4. Choose an eligible friend and complete the payment.

How Long Does VALORANT Gifting Take?

• Sending is nearly instant.
• The recipient can accept or reject the gift the next time they log into the game.

• If the gift is not accepted within 60 days, it automatically expires and the VP is refunded to the sender.
• Once accepted, the items become permanent on the recipient’s account (normal refunds are generally not available afterward, except where required by local law).

Why Someone Might Be Ineligible + Bans & Anti-Abuse Rules

Common reasons a gift fails or a player shows as ineligible:

• Account is under level 15 (gifter only)
• Friendship is less than 7 days old
• Different game shard or restricted region
• Active long/permanent ban on either account
• Recipient already owns the item
• Daily gift limit reached
• Attempting to gift non-eligible content (Night Market, owned skins, etc.)

Riot designed the friendship duration, level, region, and daily limits specifically to reduce abuse, account farming, and unwanted mass gifting. If you meet every requirement and still cannot send a gift, contact Riot Support directly.
