# Gift Bombs

<figure><img src="/files/m4Lsr6r6rbgFf5mVG2bU" alt=""><figcaption></figcaption></figure>

### What are Gift Bombs?

Gift Bombs are Nitro's version of community gifting. When you purchase a Gift Bomb you: support a specific Captain (aka. Streamer) and at the same time send gifts to their Community. Everyone wins!

### What benefits do Captains get?

When you purchase a Captain item or Gift Bomb they will receive 40% to 50% revenue share. You can learn more about the [Partner Program here](/nitro-stream-racing/overview/streamer-partner-program.md).&#x20;

### How do I purchase a Gift Bomb?

1. Go to: <https://game.playnitro.com/>
2. Search for your favorite Captain

3. If the Captain has custom items you will see an option to <img src="/files/mTapWk65DpjVW5zUelgF" alt="" data-size="line"> *<mark style="background-color:blue;">**GIFT**</mark>*

4. Once you join a Captain's lobby you can also send gifts while you wait for a race to start!

### What is the difference among the Gift Bomb price points?

The price point determines the number of gifts you will send out where 1 Gift = $5 USD.

All Gifts have a chance of dropping:&#x20;

* Honk Packs
* Flags
* Wraps
* Racers

Rarer items have a lower chance of dropping **but** higher price points add minimum guaranteed items.&#x20;

You can check the [drop rates here](#what-are-item-drop-rates).&#x20;

### How do you determine who gets a gift?

We have four simple rules for determining who is eligible to get a gift. After that we do a random pull to choose the recipient:

1. The Captain cannot get a gift.
2. Only <mark style="color:green;">**active**</mark> community members can get a gift
   * To start, we wanted to make sure that all gifts went to active community members for that specific Captain.&#x20;
   * It is easy to become active with a Captain. Just play in their races!
3. A player can only get <mark style="color:green;">**one gift**</mark> per Gift Bomb purchase.
   * No double dipping 😉
4. The random selections will favor players who don't own all of the Captain's content.
   * Our goal is to get Captain's products in the hands of more viewers.

### Why are some of the price points greyed out?

We are automatically disabling the gifts that have more items than eligible players for a Captain ([see rules 2 & 3 here](#how-do-you-determine-who-received-a-gift)).&#x20;

Bigger Gift Bombs will unlock as more players become active!

### How do you determine which item someone gets?

If you are selected to receive an item from a Gift Bomb, we determine the item you will receive in three steps:

1. We will grant an item from that Captain that you do not own (based on our [drop rates](#what-are-item-drop-rates))
2. If you already own all of the Captain's items, we have enabled some of the *cool* Nitro items from old Twitch drop campaigns as backup items! This is the only other place where you'll be able to get these items once the campaign is over.&#x20;
3. If you also own all of these items, we added a new currency that you will receive called **Gems** <img src="/files/CdQTf1NLdXIDhHRtEN57" alt="" data-size="line">

### What are item drop rates?

Drop rates will adjust based on the type of items a Captain has available in the Shop

<table><thead><tr><th width="172">Item Type</th><th width="126">Up to Flags Available</th><th width="144">Up to Honks Available</th><th width="143">Up to Wraps Available</th><th>Up to Racers Available</th></tr></thead><tbody><tr><td>Flags</td><td>100%</td><td>45%</td><td>35%</td><td>35%</td></tr><tr><td>Honk Packs</td><td>-</td><td>55%</td><td>40%</td><td>40%</td></tr><tr><td>Wraps</td><td>-</td><td>-</td><td>25%</td><td>20%</td></tr><tr><td>Racers</td><td>-</td><td>-</td><td>-</td><td>5%</td></tr></tbody></table>

Additionally, we add some minimum guarantees for bigger gifts:

<table><thead><tr><th width="200"></th><th width="183">Bomb Size</th><th>Min Guarantee</th></tr></thead><tbody><tr><td><img src="/files/MNeVUsdUiYmfy9vB9Etw" alt=""></td><td>1 item</td><td>n/a</td></tr><tr><td><img src="/files/oSa7mgbx11LnHRk890hm" alt=""></td><td>5 items</td><td>1 wrap</td></tr><tr><td><img src="/files/42PKLaiOZxyiOu59gWPb" alt=""></td><td>10 items</td><td>1 wrap</td></tr><tr><td><img src="/files/dlFBZUeFAfYk4RMUBbaU" alt=""></td><td>20 items</td><td>2 wraps<br>1 racer</td></tr><tr><td><img src="/files/amJANEyFAn9mXnZ6sxrV" alt=""></td><td>50 items</td><td>5 wraps<br>2 racers</td></tr><tr><td><img src="/files/JeFK7wIm9UNX8Yahen7S" alt=""></td><td>100 items</td><td>10 wraps<br>3 racers</td></tr></tbody></table>

### What happens if a Captain doesn't have an item that has a minimum guarantee?

We will always favor getting Captain's items in Players hands so we will override the minimum guarantee in this case.

For example:&#x20;

* If a 5 item Gift Bomb were to guarantee one wrap minimum
* **and** `cool_captain` only has Flags and Honk Packs and doesn't have a Wrap to sell yet.
* We let Players buy the *5 Item Bombs* but they won't contain the items the Captain doesn't have.&#x20;
* So, a `cool_captain` *5 Item Bomb* would only have Flags and Honk Packs in it.

### What are Gems?

<img src="/files/h9Eap7aYJ4joi0tKIaP5" alt="" data-size="line">Gems are a new currency that will allow you to purchase Nitro premium items.&#x20;

For now, the only eligible item is the Seasonal Race Pass for 200 Gems but more items will be added soon!&#x20;
