Updated by Lyndsay Cordell
Lights, camera, action, walk the red carpet and welcome yourself to The Boxies, Cratejoy's annual subscription box awards ceremony . This year we've put together a mega list of the best subscription boxes and gifts to give in 2026 according to community-voted and editor-approved subscriptions across the entire marketplace. Celebrated today are 40+ outstanding subscription boxes and gifts ranging from best overall to category-specific picks. We've also included some of our favorite staff picks as well as community picks via our social media channels.
With over 2,000 boxes to choose from, Cratejoy has a box for everyone. Finding the perfect gift, whether it's for someone you know well or not, is always a process. Gift cards are impersonal, clothes are so hard to get right, and it sometimes feels like the person you are gifting has it all. Enter subscription boxes. Subscription boxes make great gifts whatever the occasion, be it a birthday, graduation, anniversary, or a random \"thinking of you\" Tuesday. And don't forget it's always fun to gift yourself something special!
Subscription gift boxes are truly the gift that keeps on giving. You have the ability to choose the length of your gift with many subscription boxes offering one, three, six, and twelve-month subscription options. Check out our winners below and find the perfect gift box.
