What is a Sumdog friend?

Adding a friend on Sumdog requires one person to send a request and the other to accept it. Having somebody as a friend allows you to:

  • View their avatar
  • See the name of their school
  • See their coin total
  • Send and receive gifts

Having a Sumdog friend does not allow you to:

  • Send messages
  • Make any changes to your friend's account

Note: Remember, only add people you know as friends. You should also not give out your unique friend ID to people you do not know.
