Hi,

I'd like to give someone the lifetime PlexPass. &nbsp;This person already has a myPlex account. &nbsp;Is there a way I can do this?

there is no gift service. you would have to log into my.plexapp.com as them and buy it.&nbsp;

p.s. just to make sure you know a plexpass is currently useless to a person unless they have a Plex Server of their own. i just want to make sure you understand that. i'm only saying this because alot of folks buy them for people thinking they will be able to sync or something from a friends server but they cannot. and since a lifetime is non refundable you would be screwed

If I shared a cloudsync Dropbox folder with them, they could stream the same media files correct?

I know this is old, but I'm curious if this is something that can be done yet, or will be in the future. I'd like to buy a lifetime plex pass for a friend as a gift as well.

I bought one for my sister but I had to log onto her myPlex account to do it.

Send an email to [plexpass@plex.tv](mailto:plexpass@plex.tv) requesting refund. Be sure to include the username of the plex pass.  
Next time probably best to create a new thread instead of resurrecting an old one from 3-4 years ago lol.

It wasn’t meant to be harmful or rude, i supplied you with the information you needed. I was suggesting you create a new thread instead of resurrecting a post that was years old. Most community sites frown upon necro posting.
