Apple Store Gift Help

Everything you need to know about gift giving at the Apple Store.

Gift Wrapping

When you order a new iPod, or select Apple-branded software and accessories, you can add a special touch to your gift: the Apple Gift Package (subject to availability). The Apple Gift Package is a signature gift box with a red ribbon and a greeting card with your personal message.

Look for the gift icon on a product page to find out if the Apple Gift Package is available.

How to add gift packaging:
  • When you add an iPod in your cart just check the box that says "This is a gift" and you will automatically be given the option to add gift packaging.
  • When you add a gift-eligible software or accessory to your cart, you'll have the option to choose the Apple Gift Package during checkout.

    • Free Gift Message

    At no charge, you can include a gift message on the packing slip for most items in our store. Just look for the option to add or edit gift options in checkout. If your order includes items intended for different recipients, you can enter a message for each item so that when the gifts arrive, it will be clear which item is intended for whom.

    Note: Unfortunately, some items sent directly from our suppliers cannot include a gift message.

    Hiding Price Info

    Don’t worry about pricing information being displayed for gift orders. For all orders, prices are included only in the email invoice and never on the packing slip. So if you have a gift shipped directly to family or friends, they won’t see how much it cost.

    Personalize iPod with Laser Engraving

    If you’re giving iPod as a gift, add an engraving to make it even more special. Personalized laser engraving is available only at the online Apple Store. Here’s how it works: First, add the iPod you want to your Apple Store shopping cart. Then you’ll be asked whether you want personalized engraving. Just enter your text and see what it looks like.
