Virtual gift animations for your app

Virtual gift animations are the presents users buy with coins and send to a host or a friend in a live-streaming, voice chat or social app — a rose that floats up, a rocket that launches, a castle that fills the screen. SVGA Store has 5,700+ ready-made animations to build your gift tray from, each playable on its page before you buy.

How apps earn from virtual gifts

Users buy coins in the app, spend them on gifts during a live or a voice room, and the app turns part of each gift into earnings for the host, keeping the rest. Every gift plays its animation for the whole room, so the sender is seen, thanked and often ranked — which is why people send bigger gifts than they planned to.

The animation is the product: a gift that looks worth its price gets sent again. That is why apps build a gift ladder — cheap gifts that are quick and light, mid-price gifts with more show, and a few spectacular full-screen gifts at the top.

Small, medium and big gifts

Small gifts pop up for a second or two over part of the screen — hearts, balloons, a ring box. They are sent the most, so they should be light.

Medium gifts take the room for a moment — rockets, bombs, a designer handbag. Many apps run them as events, with levels and countdowns. See rocket launches and bombs and blasts.

Big gifts fill the whole screen for five seconds or more — cash rain, castles, a wishing jar. They are the most expensive, the rarest and the ones the room remembers. See all SVGA gift animations.

SVGA or PAG?

SVGA files store the bitmap pieces of a gift and how they move, so they are small, play on Android, iOS, Flutter and the web, and can carry sound — the default for most gift trays. PAG files come straight from After Effects with text and effects intact and play with libpag; read SVGA vs Lottie vs VAP vs PAG for the full comparison, and test either format in the free viewer.

Gift packs to fill your tray
