How to Gift V-Bucks and Skins in Fortnite

Last updated
Ever wondered how to share the Fortnite love by gifting V-Bucks and skins to your friends? We’re here to break it down for you, step by step.
Let’s dive into the ins and outs of gifting V-Bucks and skins in Fortnite. It’s easier than you think!
Quick Guide to Gifting V-Bucks
First things first, you cannot directly gift V-Bucks from your account to a friend’s account in Fortnite. But, don’t worry! There’s a super simple workaround – Fortnite gift cards. You can purchase these cards at various retailers or online, and then your friend can redeem them for V-Bucks.
Once you’ve got your hands on a Fortnite gift card, just pass the code to your buddy. They can enter this code in the game and bam! They’ve got V-Bucks to spend however they want.
How to Gift Skins in Fortnite
Gifting skins is a bit different and, frankly, a lot easier. First, make sure you and your friend are friends in Fortnite for at least 48 hours. Then, head to the Item Shop, pick the skin you want to gift, and select the ‘Buy As A Gift’ option. Choose your friend from the list, add a personal message if you want, and hit send. That’s it!
Remember, you’ll need enough V-Bucks in your account to cover the gift. Also, you can only gift items three times within a 24-hour period, so choose wisely!
