Delivery Time — Buying on AphaCards

Delivery Time

Delivery timing depends on the product type. Below are typical timeframes and what you can expect after a successful purchase.

Digital gift codes

Digital codes are the fastest option. After successful payment and any required verification, delivery is typically:

  • Instant: most digital codes are delivered within seconds to minutes after purchase.
  • Verification window: in rare cases we may briefly hold delivery while validating the listing (usually under 15 minutes).

All digital code deliveries are automatic — you’ll receive your code by email and it will also appear in your Order History.

Physical cards (shipped)

If a listing includes a physical card, timelines include processing and carrier transit. Below are typical estimated timeframes:

Stage Typical Timing
Processing / Dispatch 1–3 business days
Standard Shipping (Domestic) 2–7 business days (carrier-dependent)
Expedited Shipping 1–3 business days (where available)

You’ll receive tracking details once the item ships. Delivery windows exclude weekends and public holidays.

If delivery is delayed or missing

  • Check your order history and email for tracking updates.
  • If digital delivery hasn’t arrived after verification, contact support@aphacards.com with your order ID.
  • For shipped items, contact the carrier using your tracking number. We can assist if carrier status is unclear.

Note: delivery times are guidelines and may vary due to brand or local carrier operations. AphaCards always ensures delivery for verified, successful orders.
