First of all, if you gift a game token to a friend who doesn’t check their messages very often (like me), you needn’t worry about them missing on the gift due to expiration, simply because the gifted tokens don’t expire.
Secondly, if you’re going a bit blind, and you happen to gift a game that your friends already owns, they can opt to re-gift it to someone else, or to have Microsoft issue you a refund, which is definitely handy.
On gifting, the tokens gifted do not expire. No worrying they will expire before the recipient redeems the token. #Xbox

Also on gifting, if the recipient already owns the game then they can re-gift it or have the purchaser get a refund. #Xbox

Do keep in mind that at the moment we do not know when the feature will be extended to the general userbase, as for now, it’s only available among insider of the alpha circle. It’s likely to reach the other circles some time next week, but it might take a while before everyone else is entitled to enjoy it.
