Buying a game through Origin as a gift

★ Novice

I would like to buy a game as a gift, so I do not want it in my Origin but theirs. How is the best way to do this?

I think the best way would be get the access to your friend Origin account but yeah Standard smile I recommend buy an Digital Box in the Shop and hand it as real gift Standard smile

 

Origin may one day take this idea into consideration and implement it! 

Would be great.

You could have a look on Steam, there is a gifting option there and friend can redeem the code in Origin afterwards Confusedmileywink:

Seriously? Ive been trying to use this program for close to 3 years and all they have done is put in a chat room so i can talk to all my poor friends that arn't playing games because they can't get gifts. 

 

Forget the chatroom, add a gifting option, you may get some revenue out of it and i will just use Battlefields ingame voice chat to let my friends know how bad **bleep** i am when i get an occasional kill!

Don't just say there is the options. How about actually telling people WHERE it is? Jeez.
