Hi, Freeletics community, I would like to make a gift to my friend by buying a subscription to the app. Is there something like a coupon or gift option? I have tried to find some but no results. Thank you. ---

Now help them develop the same lifestyle as you. Encourage them to become a Free Athlete, motivate each other and conquer new challenges together. ---

Thank you. Probably this is what I am looking for. I have tried to find it in the menu([https://shop.freeletics.com/](https://shop.freeletics.com/)) and again - no results. I feel like I don’t know how to use the internet 🙂 Another question - I have a subscription to my iOS app. It looks like a virtual coach that generates different exercises based on my settings in the app. Does this Gift Card you sent me, provide the same functionality that I described above? ---

Yes. It does if the recipient uses it for a coach subscription. I bought one for my sister last year for Christmas 😃 ---

Was it a shop gift card? The gift cards I linked to are especially for coach subscriptions, anything else. ---

Hi MelaLetics, you are correct, it was specifically for the coach. it was the same one that you linked to (just the USA version). ---

Hello A friend of mine saw my workouts, the app, the coach, my progress, etc., and now he wants to get started too especially after already losing around 30 kg. His birthday is coming up soon, and with some other friends, we’re thinking of giving him a subscription as a gift. I saw that gift cards are available, but I wanted to ask: can someone still use a referral if they redeem a gift card? How does that work? In the referral program, if my friend subscribes for 6 months, he would normally get 6 extra months for free (for a total of 1 year), and I would receive a referral credit. If we offer him a 6-month gift card, would he get the same benefits and can he still indicate that I’m his referrer when activating it? ---

Hey @bentt 👋 > [@bentt](#): > > can someone still use a referral if they redeem a gift card? Very simply, no. They are two different schemes. You could simply pay for the first period for them and then gift your friend the account which this is subscription is on. Pros: Your friend gets essentially 12 months Coach access You get a referral credit Cons. You’ll get charged for a subscription renewal unless you cancel the renewal of the subscription prior to gifting :clapclapstatic:
