Like many games, Valorant also provides a way for players to show generosity by implementing their gift card system. Instead of giving a direct gifting option, the gift cards in the game give the redeemer the choice of picking their own desired cosmetics instead of getting a random gift.
Since Riot’s shooter game has a huge library of cosmetics, including weapon skins and other items that cannot be sold or traded, gift cards give users a choice of picking their chosen set of items. Also, gift cards are quite easy to use and can be easily acquired by users.
This article will give players a thorough guide on how to purchase gift cards in Valorant and additionally give instructions on how to redeem them.

Amazon is one of the most trusted platforms any player can opt for to purchase Valorant gift cards online. However, they can only be purchased in the United States and Canada.
