Can I buy a pass as a gift?Updated 3 months ago

Yes! The America the Beautiful Annual Pass makes a great gift. Passes arrive unsigned with no name printed, so the recipient can sign and activate it themselves.

Two Ways to Gift

  1. Ship directly to the recipient — enter their address at checkout. They sign the back when it arrives to claim the pass.
  2. Ship to yourself — then hand it over in person.

Important Timing Note

The pass validity period starts from the month it ships (the punch month), not when the recipient signs it. Plan accordingly if you're purchasing well in advance of their trip.

Gift Cards

If you'd rather let them choose when to order, we offer digital gift cards with no expiration date. Gift cards can be applied toward any product in our store.

Specialty Passes

We only sell the America the Beautiful Annual Pass. Senior, Military, Access, and other specialty passes cannot be purchased as gifts through our store — those must be obtained in person at a federal recreation site.
