Gifting Now TV

Hi, i have a colleague who is desperate to watch Succession and i thought i'd get her a NOW tv gift card as a Christmas present. 
It turns out these don't exist anymore. You have to have a NOW tv account and it seems, having spoke to their 'live chat' there is no way of me giving this as a gift. 
Does anyone know of any similar way of doing this through any other method or platform?
thanks

    'Hack' into her account and buy it yourself?

    yep, thanks all, pretty much as i expected.
    i get Now TV through BT, can't see why you would have it otherwise?

    You can buy it "stand alone" as it were.  And access the service through other things like web browser, fire sticks etc.

    With regards to the original point you made, easiest solution is say to your colleague Joe Bloggs Happy Holidays your gift from me is x months subcription to Now TV, but it has to be in your name and on your card so I'll give you the money instead for that purpose.

    In Laws have a non-smart TV so have the Nov TV stick for 'catch up' and occasional subscription sport

    Either you buy a nowtv stick with entertaiment pass and give to your friend or you give the money for 1-2 months and she buy for herself.
