When Will My Card Arrive? – The Card Project US

We know it helps to have all the delivery info upfront. When you place an order, you want to know how it’s going to be sent, how long it’ll take, and what to do if something goes wrong. That’s all explained below so you can choose the option that suits you best.

We ship from Missouri, Monday to Friday. Most orders are printed and posted the next working day. If you order early, it may go out the same day — but we always say give it a day to be sure.

Shipping Options for The US

There are three shipping options to choose from. They’re all handled by USPS, and they vary by speed and whether tracking is included.

Standard Stamp – $0.99 This is the cheapest option. Your card will be sent in a regular envelope with a First Class USPS stamp.

• Estimated delivery: 7 to 20 business days

• This is not a tracked service

• Delivered with regular letter mail

Delivery can take longer in some areas, especially during busy times of year or bad weather.

Ground Advantage – $4.99 This is a tracked option with quicker delivery times.

Once your card has been posted, you’ll be able to follow its progress until it arrives.

Priority Mail – $9.99 This is the fastest option we offer.

Customs and Import Charges

Any taxes, customs fees, or import charges are your responsibility. These are set by your country’s laws, and we can’t predict or control them. These charges are not included in our prices, and we don’t collect or cover them. If your country applies any fees when your order arrives, they must be paid by you. Please check with your local customs office before ordering if you’re unsure what might apply in your country.

Delayed Delivery? Here’s What To Do

We know it’s frustrating when something takes longer than expected. Most orders arrive on time, but delays do happen. These could be caused by bad weather, postal backlogs, or sorting issues along the way.
