The full purchase price for a gift subscription is charged to the purchaser at the time of purchase and is nonrefundable. Gift codes are not replaceable. The code is good for one-time use only, cannot be combined with another offer and has no cash or stored value. No balance remains after use.The gift subscription period (52 weeks/1 year) begins the day it is redeemed by the recipient and it does not auto-renew after this period ends. The gift code is valid for redemption for one year following the date the gift subscription is purchased. The value of any gift code left unclaimed after 1 year from the date of issue will be donated to the Sponsor a Student Program of The New York Times and will then no longer be redeemable. A gift code recipient must accept our Terms of Service and acknowledge our Privacy Policy to redeem the code. Offer terms are subject to change.

If the recipient already has a subscription to The Athletic and wants to maintain their preferences, they can cancel their existing subscription and then redeem their gift subscription with the same email address. Alternatively, they can give their gift subscription to someone else by forwarding them the redemption code.

A redemption email will be sent to the email address you provide on the date you select from the calendar above. The email will feature a unique code and instructions on how to redeem their gift subscription, as well as a note about the physical gift on its way. Please note that you, the purchaser, will not have access to the gift code.
