How to Buy Overwatch Coins for Your Friend

To buy Overwatch Coins for your friend, you can purchase a Battle.net Gift Card or Blizzard Entertainment Balance and send it to them, which they can then use to buy Overwatch Coins and other in-game items, and the process is straightforward: go to the Battle.net Shop, select the Battle.net Balance option, choose the amount you want to gift, and enter your friend’s BattleTag or email address. You can also buy Overwatch Coins directly from the in-game store using your own Battle.net Balance, but gifting Battle.net Balance gives your friend more flexibility in how they use the gift.

Understanding Overwatch Coins and Battle.net Balance

Overwatch Coins are the in-game currency used to purchase cosmetics, skins, and other items in Overwatch 2. Battle.net Balance, on the other hand, is a digital balance that can be used to purchase games, in-game items, and subscriptions on the Battle.net platform.

How Battle.net Balance Works

Battle.net Balance can be added to your account using various payment methods, including credit cards, PayPal, and gift cards. Once you have Battle.net Balance in your account, you can use it to purchase Overwatch Coins or other in-game items directly.
