What is Friend Gift?
A small daily chip or coin bonus you can send to and receive from in-game friends.
In detail
A friend gift is a tiny daily bonus social-casino games let you exchange with other players you've added as in-game friends, usually via Facebook Connect. You send a free gift, your friend sends one back, and you both collect a few thousand chips for free. Most games cap friend gifts at 25 to 50 friends per day. Stacking a full friends list is one of the highest-ROI no-spend tactics in any social casino.

FAQ
Friend Gift questions, answered
How do you add friends in a social-casino game?
Most social casinos use Facebook Connect to import your Facebook friends who also play the game. Some games also let you add by username or invite code. Dedicated subreddits and Facebook groups exist where players swap friend codes to fill out their lists.
Is there a cap on friend gifts per day?
Yes, almost always. Typical limits are 25 to 50 gifts sent and received per day. The cap is per game, not site-wide, so playing multiple social casinos doesn't combine.
Are friend gifts worth bothering with?
Yes. A full friends list of 50 active players can hand you 50,000 to 500,000 free chips or coins per day depending on the game, just for tapping a button. That's a meaningful free chunk on top of the daily wheel and time bonus.
