Abstract
One aspect of the disclosure relates to facilitating gifting of virtual items between users in an online game. During different periods in the game, users may be awarded virtual items as awards. The system provides the opportunity to a user to gift awards to other users at the time they are distributed. The other users may include members of a common affiliation, other users that have friend or other relationships, and/or other. For example, the game may provide an option to a user to keep an award or to share at least a portion of the award with one or more other users. The one or more users may be selectable from a list presented to the user. This may provide an opportunity for social gifting and/or interaction in the online game if virtual items and/or currency are typically not transferrable between users.
