Last updated
Ever wondered how you can gift your Fortnite friend some V-Bucks? Let’s dive in and find out the easiest way to do just that!
So, you’re looking to learn how to pay someone V-Bucks in Fortnite. It’s a question many players have as they wish to share the love (and some cool in-game gear) with their buddies. Let’s get to the bottom of this.
Direct V-Bucks Gifting Isn’t Possible, But There’s a Workaround
First things first, Fortnite doesn’t allow direct V-Bucks transfers between accounts. But don’t lose hope! While you can’t send V-Bucks directly, you can gift items from the Item Shop or even a Battle Pass using V-Bucks that you’ve purchased.
Here’s how it works: Head over to the Item Shop, choose the item you want to gift, and at the purchase screen, select the “Gift” option instead of “Buy.” Then, pick the lucky friend from your list, and voilà, you’ve made their day! Remember, to use this feature, you need to have two-factor authentication enabled and be friends with the person on Fortnite for at least 48 hours.
