When communicating on a social network, it is much easier to convey your emotions to friends if you use stickers. You can throw these “stickers” in comments on the wall or simply post them on a friend’s wall, or send them in personal correspondence without further ado, because they are often more eloquent than any text. You can create your own unique stickers. Stickers can add to your content, but they can also be given as gifts.

Who can you give stickers to on VK?
Stickers can be given to any users of the VKontakte social network, except for those people who have added their account to the blacklist. This function is available to subscribers, subscribers, and just random people, even if they have a private profile. There is no limit on the number of gifts per day. You can give at least all the stickers to one user, but the system does not provide the ability to give several sticker packs at once, so you will have to perform a new operation each time. But you can give one sticker to several people at the same time by selecting them from the list of people.
Is it possible to give paid stickers for free?
If you are interested in how to give paid stickers to a person without spending a penny of money, then I must disappoint you, this will not work. If you receive an offer to use a special program for this purpose, then a scammer has contacted you. You should not look for special browser extensions, since here you will also encounter malicious sites that, at best, will bombard you with viral advertisements.
You have only one option: donate sets of stickers not for money, but for votes, which you can earn in VKontakte by completing special offers.
Now you know what should be the actions of a user who decides to please his friend with a gift in the form of a set of stickers. Remember that you can give away previously purchased stickers without being charged an additional fee. Delight your friends with sets of emotional stickers, use the application on your phone for these purposes, or access the VK website from your computer.
What kind of stickers are there in VK?
VKontakte has free and paid stickers; you can only give paid ones. They, in turn, are divided into three types: for 5 votes, for 9 and the most premium – for 19. A vote is a currency within a social network. One vote is equal to seven rubles. That is, 5 votes are 35 rubles, 9 votes = 63 rubles, and 19 votes cost 123 rubles.
These packs differ in the number of stickers and their design. For 5 votes there will be simple small sets, for 9 there will be a regular large collection, there are the most such packs. But for 19, the stickers are the most interesting, because they have their own animation. That is, this is no longer just a picture, this is a whole representation in the form of a gif. Animated stickers for 19 votes depict small scenes such as running, kissing, etc.
