Sticker packs in Messages are basically iMessage apps that you can download and use as usual. Therefore, the steps to gifting an iMessage sticker pack are similar to gifting a paid app. Here’s how you do it:

Note: You can send iMessage sticker packs as gifts only to recipients in the same region as you.

  1. Locate and open the Messages app on your iPhone or iPad.
  2. Open any conversation → Tap the plus icon next to the text field.
  3. Tap Stickers → Swipe right to the left on the top bar to view the available sticker packs.

    Tap on plus in any iMessage conversation select Stickers and swipe from right to left
  4. Now, select Edit at the end of the bar → Pick Get Sticker Apps on the App Store.
  5. Find and open a paid iMessage sticker pack you wish to send as a gift.

    Tap on Edit select Get Sticker Apps on the App Store and select any paid stickers pack you want to gift
  6. Tap the Share icon located on the right-hand side → Then, select Gift App.
  7. Now, enter the email of the person to whom you wish to send the sticker pack.

  9. Select Next.

The recipient will get an email notification and can quickly download the sticker pack to add it to their sticker collection in the Messages app.
