How to Send Gifts in Aniimo starts at Mementos, the gift shop in Astra’s Chill Street area. Buy either a Gift of Affection for 28 Voxel Coins or a Gift of Celebration for 88 Glimmer, then open the Friends menu, choose the friend and use the Gift button on their profile card.
The part that makes How to Send Gifts in Aniimo confusing is that buying and sending are separate actions. The Friends menu does not sell the gifts. If you open Gift before purchasing one at Mementos, there may be nothing useful to select even though the social feature itself is working.
How to Send Gifts in Aniimo Step by Step

- Travel to Astra and use the Horizon Square area as your nearest reference point.
- Head into Chill Street and open the Mementos shop.
- Buy a Gift of Affection for 28 Voxel Coins or a Gift of Celebration for 88 Glimmer.
- Open the main menu and choose Friends.
- Select the friend you want to gift, then choose Gift on their profile card.
- Pick the gift you bought and confirm Send Gift.
After the send completes, How to Send Gifts in Aniimo should update the Affinity value shown for that friendship and reduce the owned gift count. The interface also displays a Gifts Remaining counter for the friend, so use that live counter instead of assuming an unlimited number of sends.
Mementos Location in Astra
Mementos is the key location for How to Send Gifts in Aniimo. It sits in the Chill Street block of Astra, south west of the Horizon Square travel point. The map pin can be used to navigate toward the store, and the shop opens as an interaction rather than a large interior you need to explore.
This matters because Astra contains several shops and activity markers that use different currencies. Mementos is specifically the gift shop. Super Lucky Star, Curio Corner and other Astra activities are separate systems even when Voxel Coins appear in more than one of them.
Gift of Affection and Gift of Celebration Prices
| Gift | Price | Affinity shown on item |
|---|---|---|
| Gift of Affection | 28 Voxel Coins | 30 Affinity |
| Gift of Celebration | 88 Glimmer | 99 Affinity |
For How to Send Gifts in Aniimo, the two items make the choice a currency decision as well as a social action. How to Send Gifts in Aniimo does not use one universal gift currency. Gift of Affection uses Voxel Coins, while Gift of Celebration consumes Glimmer. If you are saving Glimmer for capture items, Sparkling Crystals or another progression purchase, the cheaper looking gift is not automatically the cheaper resource for your account.
The item cards state the Affinity granted when the gift is sent. Do not confuse that Affinity gain with Companion Mode itself. Version 1.1 streamlined Companion invitations and shared rare gathering, but gifting remains its own Friends menu action.
Why the Gift Button Shows Nothing
If How to Send Gifts in Aniimo appears to be broken, check your inventory first. The most common problem is opening the Friends menu before buying a gift. Return to Mementos, confirm the item is actually owned, then reopen the friend profile and Gift panel.
- Check that the correct friend profile is selected.
- Confirm the gift is in your inventory, not just visible in the Mementos shop.
- Read the Gifts Remaining counter before trying another send.
- If a button changes to How to Obtain, you do not currently own the selected gift.
- If the social menu behaves oddly after the Version 1.1 update, restart the client before repeating a purchase.
Which Gift Should You Buy?
For How to Send Gifts in Aniimo, the practical choice depends on which currency you are more willing to spend. Voxel Coins have their own weekly acquisition limits and Astra uses, while Glimmer is also spent on progression and shop items. The larger 99 Affinity number on Gift of Celebration does not make 88 Glimmer expendable if you are saving toward something more important.
If the goal is simply to move friendship progress without burning premium feeling resources, check your current Voxel Coin balance first. If the weekly gift counter is the real limiter, spending more Glimmer will not bypass a counter that has already reached zero.
Once you understand the purchase first, send second flow, How to Send Gifts in Aniimo is a short process. The only two things worth double checking are the currency being spent and the live gift counter on the friend you selected.
Shop stock, social features and live rewards can change between versions. The official Aniimo website carries current notices when those systems are adjusted.
