Do you need thoughtful and quick gift ideas for the holidays? Last year, I shared 5 last-minute digital gift ideas for those who needed some inspiration on the spot. From e-gift cards to tv/movie subscriptions, these were some quick, easy, and practical presents that anyone could enjoy.

This year, I’m happy to share 5 more creative digital gift ideas that are just as convenient without sacrificing the personal touch. Whether it’s for the holidays or even for an upcoming event, there’s no wrapping paper needed. You’re just a few clicks away from a gift that’s both meaningful and timely.
1) Wellness App Subscription Give the gift of wellness with a subscription to Calm or Headspace. These wellness apps help to boost mental clarity, reduce anxiety, and offer guided meditations for a better night’s sleep. It’s a great way to encourage your loved ones to unwind and take a moment each day to practice mindfulness.
2) Inspiring Online Courses Many of us are eager to try new hobbies and learn new skills for the new year. Memberships on platforms such as Skillshare and Masterclass would be the perfect for the creatives in your life. A membership offers unlimited access to hundreds of classes such as creative writing, social media, marketing, cooking, and more.
3) Home Cooked Meals Spoil your family and friends this holiday season with a savoury home cooked meal. Meal kit services such as HelloFresh and GoodFood offer holiday-themed options and makes trying new recipes easy. Whether you’re celebrating with friends, family, or know someone on their own, all meals are tailored to your needs with properly portioned ingredients.
4) Entertaining Games Give the gamer in your life hours of entertainment and fun for the holidays. Whether they have their eye on a new game, want additional updates or accessories, you can easily purchase a gift card online from platforms such as Steam, Nintendo, and Playstation.
5) Experience Gifts Rather than giving a gift card for material items, why not consider one for an experience instead? This can include a night out at a restaurant, getting a haircut, or a much-needed massage. Rakuten is offering cash back on gift card purchases from over 750+ popular retailers.

Finding the perfect last-minute gift can be stressful, but thankfully there are many options to choose from. Whether it’s a subscription or an online course, there are plenty of ways to make your gift personal and thoughtful for the recipient. Are there any gifts on this list that you’d be happy to receive this holiday season? I’d love to know!
