We don't currently have the option to purchase a gift card for another user at this time; however, you can gift an Outside+ membership to another person by following the steps below.
Please note: At this time, you can only gift a membership to another individual if they don't already have a membership with us. If you attempt to purchase a membership for a user who already has a subscription with us, you will receive an error message letting you know an account already exists.
Step 1: Sign up for Outside+ under the email address and name of the person who will be receiving the gift.
Step 2: Input your credit card information to purchase the membership.
Step 3: Log into the new membership and cancel the auto-renewal by following these steps. If you want your Outside+ membership to be a reoccurring annual gift, you can leave auto-renewal as is. All memberships are billed yearly.
Alternatively, if the gift recipient would like to continue their membership, you can instruct the gift recipient to update their credit card at a later date before renewal. In order for the credit card information to be updated, the Outside+ membership will need to be on auto-renewal.
Important: Once the purchase is completed, the person who is receiving the gift will receive an email confirmation welcoming them to Outside+. For example, if you wish to notify the recipient of their Outside+ membership on 12/25, please purchase on 12/25.
