We get it.—Life can get busy, and sometimes it’s hard to remember to send gifts for birthdays, graduations, anniversaries and the like. Especially if those you love are far away (or you just can’t easily see the person to actually hand them a gift IRL), having the forethought to shop for a present, wrap it and ship it off in time is something that can seem nearly impossible. So, to help out all you busy bees and procrastinators out there, we rounded up the best last-minute gifts you can send online—many of which arrive instantly via email. (!!!)

Of course, you can send these online gifts ahead of time, too. They don’t seem last-minute at all, making them perfect for any situation. And if it is a last-minute gift, no one will even suspect a thing. Thanks to technology, it’s easier now more than ever to send a meaningful and useful gift online.

From MasterClass subscriptions that can connect your loved ones with celebrities and other influential people to subscription boxes that will deliver different items bi-weekly, monthly or quarterly, there’s no shortage of great gifts you can send online at the push of a button. There’s something for anyone of any age and any interest. Got a beauty-lover on your list? There’s an easy online gift for them. Have a loved one who never has time to cook? Send them a membership that makes their life easier. Is your best friend obsessed with wine? Yes, there’s an online gift for them, too.

These subscription services, gift cards and memberships are truly great gifts—no matter the timing or situation. You might even end up wanting to snag a few for yourself. We won’t tell.
