Buy an iphone as a gift

On line order it asks for a phone number to complete the order. I don't know which telephone number I have to sign in the checkout. Don't want the gift recipient to know until Christmas!

I believe that when selecting the phone for purchase online, one of the selections you can make is to select your carrier later. That does not connect it to a current phone number. To complete the order, I believe that would be your phone so you could be contacted if there were any issues with the order. If you have any questions, you can contact Apple by phone or chat and ask them.
