To enable gifting in Fortnite, you have to set a two-factor authentication on the Epic Games website first. This is necessary to prevent others from spending real-life money on Fortnite gifts from your account. Additionally, you have to at least reach level 2 in the game. You can only send gifts in Fortnite if you’re playing on a PC, Xbox One, PS, Nintendo Switch, and Android. You can only send up to five gifts per day, and only to players that have been on your friends' list for over three days. If all the requirements are met but sending a gift fails, the other player most likely already has the item. The gifting also won’t work if you try to send someone a Battle Pass, V-bucks, items that are gone from the Item Shop, or items from your locker. To enable receiving gifts, sign in to your Epic Games account, navigate to ‘’Settings,’’ then click the silhouette icon to open account settings. Select “Yes” beside the “Receive gifts from others” option.
