To be honest I don't know. But I do know the only way you can receive digital download is through your email. You will have to go through your email to obtain the code. Which Best Buy will send you a link. You will be offer to print or use the code( email) on Netflix. Once you have that number(code) you go to Netflix, go to the account, go to redeem gift card or promo, type in code number, hit redeem and you all set. I would think they would allow you to email once you open to get code. I would just copy and paste the open code to person email, this way the receiver could follow the direction to Netflix and you will still have original code. Hope this help.
