There are a few F2P games which offer a wishlist/gifting mechanic. (I know Path of Exile does).

Unclear how successful it would be.

Even Path of Exile only allows gifting microtransactions through explicit interactions with support, and they're somewhat picky about verifying that you're buying the items for someone you know personally -- they're going out of their way to avoid letting players trade in-game equipment for paid cosmetic items.
