We’ve assembled a collection of quick-hit gifts that can be issued within seconds, freeing you of shipping concerns and in-store shopping.

There was a time, believe it or not, when nearly all gifts were bought in person. And while many still are, we also recognize that venturing into your local brick-and-mortar store during the holidays can feel like an undertaking in and of itself, as can shopping online given the potential for unforeseen shipping delays.

Fortunately, you have options. There are now plenty of online memberships, e-gift cards, subscription boxes, and other digital gifts that can be procured and delivered without ever stepping foot inside a physical retailer or making that last-minute run to the post office. Some, like a subscription to Marvel Unlimited or Headspace, can be delivered instantaneously, while others let your loved one pick out the perfect puzzle, bag of coffee, or plant on their own time.

We can’t guarantee all of the Verge-approved picks below exude the same earnest sincerity as a homemade gift might, but there’s bound to be something here to delight nearly everyone on your wish list.
