# Gifts

A gift is a redeem code that gives the player store credit or a product, without
paying. It works for giveaways, event rewards, streams, partnerships and to make
up for a problem on the server.

Everything is in **Store > Gifts**.

## Create a gift

1. In **Store > Gifts**, click **Create Gift**.
2. Enter the **Gift Code** (the wand next to it generates a code) and the **Gift
   Name**.
3. In **Reward Type**, pick the **Gift Type**:
   - **Credit ($)**: the amount goes to the player's balance in the store;
   - **Product**: the product is delivered on redeem, like a purchase.
4. Set, if you like, the total redeem limit and the validity.
5. Save.

Each player redeems each gift only once. A product gift delivers what the product
delivers: if the product uses the VIP system, the gift gives the VIP (the
product's days, or forever on a permanent product).

> [!NOTE]
> Gifts cannot be edited. To change one, delete it and create another with the
> same code.

## Redeem on the site and in the game

- **On the site**: the player opens the store's **Gifts** page (the address ends
  in `/presentes`) and types the code.
- **In the game** (Minecraft and Hytale, plugin 2.8.0 or newer): with the account
  linked through `/vincular`, the player uses `/resgatar <code>` (or `/usarkey`).
  The same rules as the site apply: active, within the date, within the use limit
  and once per player.

```text In the game chat
/resgatar LIVE500
```

Typing a wrong code many times blocks new tries for a few minutes. See
[Linking and commands](/en/plugins/linking/).

> [!TIP]
> For a stream, create a credit gift with a use limit and a short validity, like
> `LIVE500`, 100 redeems, valid until the end of the week. Whoever was watching
> gets it, and the code does not float around for months.
