How to pay for someone else

This article explains how to pay for someone else. For information about how to purchase upgrades in bulk, please see Bulk purchasing.

Right now, for one off purchases, we can only accept online credit card payments, made by Visa, Mastercard and American Express. The learner would either need to know the card details to add at checkout, or they would need to pay using their own card and request reimbursement.

Please note that our payment gateway system, Stripe, doesn't ask for the name on your card. All it requires is the card number, expiry date and CVV, so please only enter the details requested.

We may add more payment options in the future.

Do you have gift cards?

FutureLearn doesn't currently offer gift cards for any of our products, but we might consider adding this in the future.
