How to Gift an Audiobook

Gifting an audiobook is a thoughtful way to connect with a loved one and introduce them to the joys of audiobook listening. With Libro.fm, you can give the gift of stories and support independent bookshops at the same time. Here’s how to gift audiobooks with ease.


Step #1

Decide between an audiobook credit bundle or specific audiobook

Don’t know what they like to read? No problem! You can gift audiobook credits—you pick the number and your recipient picks the audiobooks. These credits can be redeemed on any audiobook (subject to availability) and never expire, making this an ideal gift for book lovers. If you do know what they like, consider gifting them a specific audiobook! Whether they’re into bestsellers, unexpected finds, or classic reads, a personalized pick shows extra thought. Just select “Send as gift” on the audiobook detail page.

Step #2

Request their Libro.fm Wish List

Libro.fm users can share their Wish List with others to make gifting easy! To share, just visit your Wish List under “Account” and copy your “Public Wish List Link.”

Step #3

Support your indie bookshop

Libro.fm shares profits with indie bookshops, so when you gift audiobooks, you’re supporting small businesses rather than a big chain. You can even choose a specific bookshop, whether it’s a local favorite or one with special meaning.

Step #4

Personalize the delivery

Libro.fm lets you send your audiobook gift immediately via email for a last-minute surprise, or you can schedule it for a special date. You can also receive a printable PDF gift card, which gives you the option to wrap it up or share it in person.

Step #5

Remind them of the benefits

Your audiobook gift is more than just a story. It transforms daily routines, like chores or commutes, into enjoyable experiences. Audiobook listening even offers a great alternative to podcasts, especially for those looking to immerse themselves in longer narratives. And, of course, every purchase supports an independent bookshop!

Step #6

Bask in their thanks, and watch them access audiobooks anytime, anywhere

Audiobook credits from Libro.fm never expire and are DRM free—meaning your recipient will actually own their audiobooks. They can listen on our iOS or Android apps, or download them onto their preferred listening device.
