    When you launch Fortnite , this is the tab at the top of the page, between Locker and Battle Pass .
    • To gift skins in Fortnite, you must have two-factor authentication activated on your account and a valid payment method.

    This can be a character skin , emote, spray, or Bundle.
    • With Version 16.50, you can now gift Bundles without worrying about gifting the same items twice. Dynamic Bundle gifting allows you to gift only the missing items of a Bundle to your friend. [1]

    You can find your friend from the list or use the search bar.
    • It's recommended to search for your friend's Epic Games display name rather than console gamertag to avoid sending the gift to the wrong person. You cannot refund a gift after it's been sent.
    • If a friend already owns the item, you'll see OWNED in green font where the price would be.
