Can I gift a Battle Pass?

Answered by Douglas Hiatt

You can gift a Battle Pass in Fortnite. Gifting the Battle Pass is a great way to show your support and generosity towards your friends or fellow players. It allows you to purchase the Battle Pass for someone else and help them unlock all the exciting rewards and challenges throughout the season.

To gift the Battle Pass, you’ll need to follow a few steps depending on the platform you’re playing on. Let’s go through them:

1. PC: If you’re playing on PC, you can gift the Battle Pass by accessing the Fortnite in-game store. However, in some cases, you may need to restart the game to enable this feature. Once you’re in the store, you should see the option to gift the Battle Pass to a friend. Simply select this option and follow the prompts to send the gift.

2. Console (Xbox, PlayStation, and Nintendo Switch): On consoles, the process is quite similar. Go to the in-game store and look for the Battle Pass. You should find an option to gift it to a friend. Click on it and proceed with the instructions to complete the gifting process.

3. Mobile (iOS and Android): Unfortunately, gifting the Battle Pass is not available on mobile devices. This limitation is likely due to platform-specific restrictions imposed by Apple and Google. However, if you’re playing Fortnite on mobile, you can still purchase V-Bucks for your friends, which they can then use to buy the Battle Pass themselves.

It’s important to note that gifting the Battle Pass requires you to have a certain level of friendship or connection with the recipient. In order to gift the Battle Pass, you need to be friends with the person you want to gift it to for at least 48 hours. This is to prevent any potential misuse or unauthorized gifting.

Also, keep in mind that gifting the Battle Pass is a one-time purchase, and you cannot gift it multiple times to the same person. Once the Battle Pass has been gifted, it cannot be refunded or transferred to another player.

Gifting the Battle Pass is a fantastic way to spread the joy and excitement of Fortnite with your friends. It allows you to share the experience of unlocking new cosmetics, challenges, and rewards throughout the season. So go ahead and surprise your friends with the gift of a Battle Pass and enjoy the game together!
