Hey there! App Gifting is a great way to spread the joy of VR. Your friend is going to love you when they get to experience Resident Evil 4!

Please double check that code was sent to the correct email address, and that it has not expired. They will have had 30 days to redeem the game.

Also, here is an article with more information about Managing App Gifts. If you still need assistance, please submit a ticket to Oculus Support so we can look further into this for you. Thanks!

A month and still no response? Come on meta youre better than that. Im also having this issue.

Hey @Livistis! I went ahead and fixed up the previous response, since we heard from the engineering team that this should be resolved now!

 

I hate to hear you're still having troubles sending gifts, are you seeing the same error message as the previous one shown in the thread? If so, definitely reach out to @MetaQuestSupport so our team can look into this further!

I am still having the same issue as pictured in @LoneStranger's post. I was charged already for the game contractors and it was taken from my bank account but im still receiving the error that I cannot send the gift due to "region, user restrictions, or other factors.". I have a second friend that was able to send my first friend a gift with no issues but I cannot. @Cookies-N-Scream @MetaQuestSupport .
