Riot Points Gifting Requirements and Restrictions

Before diving into the gifting process, it's essential to understand the eligibility criteria and limitations imposed by the system to ensure a smooth gifting experience.

Level Requirement: To send RP gifts, you must be at least level 15. This requirement ensures that gifting is a feature available to players who have gained some experience within the game.

Daily Limits: Players can send up to 5 RP gifts every 24 hours, and the same limitation applies to receiving gifts. This restriction prevents any potential abuse of the gifting system and ensures a fair distribution of virtual items.

Hacked Account and Unauthorized Gifts

If your account has been compromised, and unauthorized gifts have been sent, promptly send a ticket directly to the Riot Games support team. A specialist will investigate the situation and take appropriate actions.

Issues with Pre-Paid RP Cards

Certain payment methods are exclusively available through the Gifting Center. If you have a pre-paid RP card and encounter difficulties using it, send your friend the card PIN for redemption directly through the game client.

FAQs

Why Can't I Gift RP or Content I Already Have?

The system is designed to prevent gifting of RP or content already owned by the sender. While this limitation might cause inconvenience, it is in place to avoid redundancy and potential misuse.

What Can I Gift?

Players have a versatile range of items they can gift, including champions, skins, ward skins, RP, summoner icons, rune pages, hextech keys, hextech chests, and gifting-specific event loot. This variety allows for a personalized and thoughtful gifting experience.

Accidentally Removed a Friend?

If you accidentally removed a friend from your list, causing a delay in sending a gift, don't worry. Simply re-add your friend to your list and wait for at least one day until they become eligible for a gift.

Can Gifts Be Reversed?

Unfortunately, gifts cannot be reversed. It is crucial to double-check the recipient's summoner and the intended content before finalizing the gift to avoid any irreversible errors.
