help and SupportResolving problems

FAQ SupportI have 100 points, but I did not receive a free card. Why?

In order to receive your reward card you need to select the card you want. We do not do this automatically, because you can use your points in different ways.

While you are placing an order and you have selected the cards that you would like to purchase, you will see your points above the "Continue" button. If you have more then 100 points you will see a drop-down menu with the available free cards to select.

You will see the free card on the next confirmation screen. When you complete your purchase, you will receive your reward card with the rest of your order.

FAQ SupportI do not receive reward points for the orders that I place. Why?

In order to receive reward points for your purchase, it needs to comply to the following:

  • Your order needs to be for $20 or more.
  • There shouldn't be other discounts for that purchase.

For example, if you order $10 worth of cards or if you receive 10% volume discount for $100 purchases you will not have points accumulated for these orders.

FAQ SupportThe transaction didn't go through, but my credit card was charged. Why?

Most likely, what you see as a charge on your credit card is only an Authorization - an incomplete transaction that will disappear shortly. You should see this incomplete transaction as "Authorization", "Pending Debit" or something similar - it depends on the bank that you use.

Authorization is the the first stage of every credit card transaction - making sure that you have enough funds available. After that the system proceeds with verifying your information. If the transaction doesn't go through for some reason, the authorization usually disappears in 24 hours to several days - again it depends on your bank.
