Buy your friends a gift from GOG.com. Our handsome and fearless team have just launched the gift system.
[url=/en/catalogue][/url]Finally we can present the Gift Certificates! Lots of you requested the gift option on our forums and in the emails to the support, but we just couldn't spoil the surprise and tell you about our plans. Now you can revive your friends' memories of the past and buy them a gift from GOG.com's games catalogue. You'll find the new gift option on every game page. If you need more information about Gift Certificates, please refer to [url=/en/support/website_help/gift_certificates]Website help[/url].

It's in the works but we wanted to get this system up first. No set timeframe for it, but we're working on it!

Hi,

That's great, thanks a lot :)

Just as a curiosity, do you have to register to get the gift? If so, I just hope people don't find mails like "You've been given a free game!" that they trash instantly, fearing obvious spam.

Yes, you have to create an account on gog.com in order to redeem you gift. But we've put a lot of work to prepare a classy email, informing you that your friend has bought you a gift.
Of course you can send the system email to yourself and then give the gift certificate to you friends any way you like (email, instant message etc.)

deathkitten: 1. let us print out a voucher to give instead of needing to know their email address

You can do that. :) Simple set yourself as a gift recipient, print e-mail you'll receive and give it to anyone you want. :)
