Last updated
Ever wondered how you can surprise your friends with V-Bucks on their Nintendo Switch? Well, you’re in the right place to find out!
Let’s get straight into how you can buy V-Bucks as a gift for someone using a Nintendo Switch.
Quick and Easy Steps to Gift V-Bucks
To gift V-Bucks, you firstly need to understand that you cannot directly purchase V-Bucks as a gift through Fortnite on the Nintendo Switch. Bit of a bummer, right? But don’t worry, there’s a workaround.
The trick is to buy a Fortnite gift card that can be used for V-Bucks. You can find these cards at most online retailers or physical stores that sell video game merchandise. Just make sure the card is for the Nintendo Switch and has the amount you want to gift.
Why Fortnite Players Love V-Bucks
V-Bucks let players buy cool things in Fortnite like outfits, gliders, and the latest season’s battle pass. Who wouldn’t want to get that as a gift? And with over 200 million players worldwide, you know you’re giving a gift that’s sure to be a hit.
Remember, while you can’t send V-Bucks directly, getting a gift card does the trick perfectly. Plus, it adds a bit of suspense as they scratch to reveal their gift!
