Stay Close to the Friends Who Moved Away

Some of the best friendships survive moves, new jobs, and different time zones. But staying connected takes effort, especially when you can't grab coffee on a whim anymore. A thoughtful gift is a simple way to say I miss you and I'm still here. With On Me, you can send something your friend will love in just a couple of minutes. Choose a category, add an inside joke or heartfelt note, and they pick exactly what they want. It's friendship that goes the distance.

A coffee date over video, a brunch on you, or a movie you can both watch at the same time are all fun ways to stay connected. On Me gifts arrive by text, email, or a shareable link, so you can send one anytime. There are no fees, and gifts never expire. Your friend can enjoy it whenever they need a reminder of you.

A Virtual Coffee Date

Coffee dates don't have to stop just because you live in different cities. A Coffee On Me card lets your friend grab their favorite latte while you catch up over video. It works at coffee favorites like Blue Bottle, Caribou Coffee, and Joe Coffee. It's a sweet way to keep your tradition alive. Add a note suggesting a time for your next chat. It'll feel like old times.

“I just think this was the best idea anyone has had in forever. I've been giving gift cards for Christmas for years & it's always a struggle to get the right one for everybody. On Me solved my dilemma & I can order from them every year. And everyone is happy, especially me!”

Carolyn Nickolauson

“I love it! I've always wanted to gift people I love, but I haven't been able to hit the sweet spot of finding "exactly what would spark joy". As soon as I learnt about it, I tried it for my partner and my sister.”

“As a senior retiree, my thumbs don't go at Mach 1, and I don't always find apps easy to use. But I found this one very intuitive. Choosing a category like hiking makes me feel like I at least put a little effort into knowing what types of gift the recipient would want.”

“As someone who lives out of state from friends and family, On Me has been a great tool for making sure I don't miss the opportunity to make my loved ones feel special for birthdays and other celebrations. Love this service!”
