Shipping & turnaround
Last updated July 27, 2026
Two clocks run on every order: production time (how long we take to make your cards) and transit time (how long the carrier takes to deliver them). The date we promise is the ship date — the day your order leaves our shop.
Production time
Production time is counted in business days — Monday through Friday, excluding US federal holidays. The day you order does not count, so an order placed Tuesday starts its clock Wednesday. Pick your speed at checkout:
| Speed | In production | Fee |
|---|---|---|
| Standard | 5–7 business days | Included |
| Express | 3–4 business days | $10.00 |
| Rush | 2–3 business days | $25.00 |
Express and Rush buy you a place in the production queue, not faster delivery — the carrier still takes its usual transit time once the box is handed over.
The “ships by” date
Your cart and your confirmation email both show a Ships by date. It is the upper bound of the production window you chose, calculated on business days, so it is a promise we intend to beat rather than a best case. If anything is going to push us past it, we email you before that date rather than after.
Shipping, rates & tracking
We ship USPSwithin the United States. Rates are priced live for your exact address and package weight while you are in the cart, shown as one shipping & handling amount. You pay USPS's own package price — never more than the Post Office counter would charge for the same box — and never a made-up flat rate. We buy postage in bulk; the difference covers packing materials and handling.
You will get a tracking number by email as soon as the label is bought. Once a package is scanned in, delivery is in the carrier's hands; delays in the USPS network are not something we can control or refund, though we will always help you chase a lost package.
We do not ship internationally yet.
Wrong address, undeliverable & lost packages
Please double-check your address at checkout — we print the label exactly as entered. If a package comes back to us as undeliverable, we will re-send it once you cover the second label. If tracking stops moving for more than a week, email us and we will open a case with USPS and make it right.
Damage in transit is covered — see returns & refunds. Report it within 14 days of delivery.
