How to Gift a Blue Tick on X (Twitter): The Complete Guide

Whether you want to surprise a favorite creator, support a friend’s growing account, or help a colleague unlock advanced platform features, gifting an X (formerly Twitter) subscription is a seamless way to share the perks of verification.

While you can’t buy a standalone digital “gift card code” off a third-party rack, X supports an official, on-platform gifting system for annual X Premium and Premium+ tiers.

What to Know Before You Buy

Before diving into the checkout process, keep these crucial ground rules in mind:

• Official Desktop Checkout Only: Gifting options are officially handled directly through x.com via web browsers rather than mobile app stores (to sidestep app store commission fees).
• Annual Commitments: Official gift subscriptions are typically structured as one-time annual purchases rather than recurring monthly renewals.
• Recipient Eligibility: The recipient must generally be a non-subscriber at the time of gifting, and their account remains subject to X’s standard safety, security, and eligibility reviews. If an account violates platform terms or fails eligibility checks, the gift cannot be redeemed.
• Non-Refundable: All gift purchases on X are final, non-replaceable, and non-combinable.
