Do the gift vouchers expire?
No. A gift voucher has no expiry date, so the recipient can redeem it whenever it suits them. The gift code works once.
Please note that the first person who enters the gift code accepts the gift, even if you had someone else in mind. The code is not tied to a name until someone accepts it, and you cannot accept your own gift. We cannot check whether the person entering the code is the person you wanted to give the gift to, and we are not responsible if someone else redeems it. So please share the code only with the person you want to give it to.
A few more details:
- You get a full refund for a gift order until the gift is accepted. After that, there is no refund. The recipient can only redeem the gift itself, for example a subscription of a year. Sending the gift code back to us in exchange for its monetary value is not possible.
- A gift is bound to one country, or it has no country limit. You can find the details in Why do gifts have a geographical limitation?
- The recipient can already be a member. In that case the gift is added to their existing subscription, as described in What if I’m already subscribed and I get a subscription as a gift?
