How do I give a gift of an app I already own and love?

I purchased a third-party recipe management app called Paprika, which I love. I want to purchase a license for the app for a family member, but can't seem to figure out how to do that.
I open App Store and search on Paprika. It returns the result but there is not an option to give it as a gift. I can tell a friend, etc. or open it.
What am I missing?
Thanks in advance for any advice you can offer!

At this moment, Mac App Store apps cannot be gifted.
The closest that you can come would be to send this person an iTunes Gift card for $20.

    How can I use a gift card on App Store?

    If it's an iTunes gift card, as opposed to an Apple Store gift card (which can only be used in Apple stores and the Apple online store), then you can redeem it onto your account : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1574
    And as long as you are buying content for yourself (you can't use an account's balance for gifting content) then your balance should be automatically used for your purchases : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5582
    When making purchases, content credits are used first, followed by Gift Certificate, iTunes Card, or Allowance Account credits; your credit card or PayPal account is then charged for any remaining balance.

    You can't send gifts to people who are in a different country - you can only send them to people who are in, and whose account is in, the same country as yourself.

  • How can I redeem my gift card if I don't own a credit card

    How can i redeem my gift card if I do not own a credit card?

    Whether a credit card needs to be entered onto an account depends upon how you created the account. Unless the instructions on this page are followed when creating an account : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT2534
    then credit card details will need to be entered before the account can be used to download any item from the store.
    If you are being prompted to review your account then you could see if the instructions on this post by mountaingoatgirl lets you do so without needing to enter credit card details : https://discussions.apple.com/message/24303054
    If not then you will need to create a new account, and follow the instructions on that HT2534 page when creating it. If you want to use the same email address then you will need to replace it on that account first e.g. by tapping on it in Settings > iTunes & App Store on your phone, via the Store > View Account menu option on your computer's iTunes or via http://appleid.apple.com

    How can I buy another "license" for an app I already have?

    I understand what that's like, believe me. And adding problems with an Apple product really adds insult to injury. Trust me, calling them when the lines are open will be really good. They're very nice, and from my own experience they've always found a solution for me. When you're frenzied it's sometimes nice to talk to a person instead of fill out a form. Refer to my post above for their number, but I don't think they open until 9 'o clock Pacific Time or something like that. Good luck!

  • Gift This APP-but already owns?

    I want to gift an app to a friend, but I'm not sure if she already owns it. It's obviously null to ask her first.
    So what happens to the purchase if she does already have the app?

    She'll have a duplicate purchase. The iTunes Store cannot check to see if she already owns that app before you send the gift, and they don't give refunds. So the best route, though I understand it may spoil a surprise, is to find out if she has the app already before you give the gift.
    Regards.

  • HT2736 I received a gift for an app I already have

    Someone gifted me an app that I already own.  How can I refund their gift to them?
    Thanks!

    You can't. But the sender can direct the gift to someone else as long as you didn't redeem the gift.
    Regards.

    Hi..
    Try resetting your iPad >    Hold the On/Off Sleep/Wake button and the Home button down at the same time for at least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
    Then try purchasing an app.
    To see the balance, type this web address in the Safari menu bar:   http://store.apple.com/us/account/home
    When the page opens, click:  Check the balance of a gift card
    Keep in mind, the total purchase price may include any applicable taxes or fees >   iTUNES STORE - TERMS AND CONDITIONS

  • How do you give away quantities of paid apps as prizes in a promotion?

    I understand you can "gift" apps.  But if you would like to give away a larger quantity, say 100 as a nice round number, what is the process?  I am assuming there is a prize code you give to each winner- but how do you get these, how do you pay for them, how do you distribute, etc.

  • HT2736 How do you accept a gift on the App Store

    Hey

    What version of iOS do you have on your iPad ? With iOS 7 I get a 'send gift' button at the bottom of the Featured tab in the App Store app on my iPad, next to buttons with my account id on and a Redeem button - I can't remember whether that appears on previous iOS versions.
