Buying for someone with style

When taste is strong, personal touches matter. Engraved initials, a hand-picked accessory or a day shopping together say more than an expensive item that misses.

Keep receipts for anything wearable.

Buying for your crush

A gift for a crush should be low-pressure. Keep it light and small, and pick something that matches what you already know about them.

Avoid anything expensive or intimate, which can make a first move feel heavy.

If you are shopping at the last minute

Gift cards, hampers and a personalized game can be arranged online the same day. An oin game is usually emailed within an hour of payment. Pair one with a handwritten note about the year ahead.

New Year is about what comes next, so tie the gift to a plan: a trip, a class, a habit you will start together.

What should I get my crush who loves fashion for New Year?

A watch, sneakers or a gift card for a favourite store all work. For a personal touch, add a personalized pixel game with an appreciation letter.

What is a unique New Year gift for my crush that is not just another object?

A playable gift: a small game where they are the hero, with a letter from you at the start and a closing one at the end that looks ahead. It gives them a memory instead of another object. A keepsake that is not clothing sidesteps the sizing problem.

Can I send my crush a gift online at the last minute?

Yes. Gift cards and digital gifts arrive instantly. An oin game is generated automatically after payment and usually emailed within an hour.

What is oingift.com and is it a good gift for my crush?

oingift.com is where you order oin, a personalized 2D pixel game starring your crush, generated from an authorized photo. It can be a good low-pressure gift for a crush, because it is playful and does not have to say everything at once. It includes two letters and a 5-question quiz, and plays in a browser with no install.
