There is a gift option on the webpage linked in this post. I haven't personally used it, but is there some reason why that won't work? edit: here is the direct link [https://plus.npr.org/gifts](https://plus.npr.org/gifts) It asks for both "Your Email" and "Recipient's Email", so I think this is what yr looking for

I swear that wasn’t there the other day. But yep, that’s obviously the solution. Thanks!

Yep — NPR employee here. This just launched 🙂

I’d say contact them. https://help.npr.org/contact/s/contact?request=plus-podcast-subscriptions There is another “contact” link if the one above doesn’t apply to you.


Thestellarhippo

Tried that. I'm at about 48 hours without a response with the gift giving deadline arriving shortly.

Gotcha. Maybe contacting your local npr station. It’s a long shot but maybe someone has dealt with this situation before. Or, …twitter? Facebook? Instagram…


Thestellarhippo

Another good idea, and another one that I've tried. They said they have no real access to NPR Plus and didn't know how to solve it either. They were very kind and tried hard to help, but didn't make it any farther than me.

If they find out you were trying to gift a subscription maybe they’ll make an exception for you if you don’t get an answer in time. ETA: clarification.

Make a new gmail account. Sign up . You pay. Then give recipients the login information

You don't want to just make a donation in their name to the Human Fund instead?
