Gifting Gold on ChessKid
Only Adult accounts (Parent, Teacher, or Coach) have the ability to gift memberships on ChessKid. If you’d like to give a Kid the gift of Gold, follow these steps:
Log in to your Adult ChessKid account, and click the 'Gift a ChessKid 1-Year Membership' button on your homescreen.
You’ll be taken to the checkout page, where you'll see a summary of your purchase and the total amount due. Complete the payment using the secure link or by entering your card information directly on the page. Once you’re ready, click 'Pay.'
After payment, you will receive a ‘Purchase complete!’ page with a unique subscription code. An email will also be sent to you with instructions on how the receiver can redeem the code.
