Can You Gift Valorant Points in 2026?
Short answer: No, you cannot directly send Valorant Points (VP) to another player's account. Riot Games does not support VP transfers between accounts.
But there are workarounds.
Option 1: Riot Games Gift Cards
Buy a Riot Games prepaid card and give the code to your friend.
- Available at Amazon, Best Buy, Walmart, GameStop, and digital retailers
- Denominations: $10, $25, $50, $100
- Redeemable for VP at Riot's standard rate
$10 gift card = 1,000 VP
This is the most straightforward "official" gifting method. If your friend plans to wait for discounted skins, you might time it with the Valorant Night Market for extra value.
Option 2: In-Game Skin Gifting
Valorant allows you to gift specific store bundles and skins directly to friends:
- Open the Valorant Store
- Click on a skin or bundle
- Click "Gift" and select a friend from your friends list
- Pay with your own VP
Limitations:
- You must have been friends for at least 3 days
- Not all items are giftable (daily rotation items may not be)
- You pay from your VP balance — your friend receives the item, not VP
Option 3: Third-Party VP Delivery
Third-party sellers can deliver VP directly to any Valorant account:
- Provide the recipient's Riot ID
- VP are added to their account within 10–30 minutes
- No password or login required
This works as a gift since you can specify anyone's account as the delivery target. For a full comparison of third-party VP pricing, see our cheapest Valorant Points guide.

Frequently Asked Questions
Does Valorant have a gifting feature for VP?
Not directly. Riot disabled all in-game gifting in Valorant to combat fraud and account-trading. You cannot send VP from one Riot account to another in-game.
Can I give VP to a friend's account?
Indirectly. Buy a VP gift card and send them the code, or order VP through SwiftBux using their Riot username. Both methods are common workarounds for the gifting limitation.
What's the workaround for gifting VP?
Cheapest: order VP on their Riot account through SwiftBux — fast, no gift card needed, and significantly cheaper than buying them a Riot gift card.
