Virtual gift

Virtual gift may refer to:

• A gift consisting a picture of an item, instead of the item itself, usually through the internet. (e.g. Facebook gifts and Little World Gifts.)
• A gift consisting of an item in a virtual world. The item may have a digital social capital value, esthetic or functional value. The item may or may not be paired with an offline equivalent.
• An alternative gift, a form of gift giving in which the giver makes a donation to a charitable organization in the recipient’s name, rather than giving an item
