How Long Does It Take to Receive My Gift Card on WizzGift?

Last updated on Nov 21, 2025

When purchasing a digital gift card, speed and reliability are crucial. At WizzGift, our system is optimized to deliver your gift cards quickly, securely, and with full transparency. Delivery time depends on several factors, including payment confirmation, blockchain network conditions, and the gift card brand’s approval process. This guide explains every scenario in detail so you always know what to expect.


1. Instant Delivery After Payment Confirmation

For the majority of orders, gift card codes are delivered instantly, usually within a few seconds after your payment has been successfully confirmed. Customers typically see their gift card appear in their WizzGift dashboard almost immediately.

This “instant delivery” applies to:

  • Lightning Network payments

  • WizzGift Wallet balance payments

  • Crypto payments from fast-confirming networks

  • Binance Pay

  • Most stable gift card brands

Our automated system handles processing 24/7, ensuring rapid delivery with no manual intervention.


2. Delivery Within 5–10 Minutes During Network Congestion

While instant delivery is the norm, certain circumstances may cause a minor delay of 5 to 10 minutes. These delays generally occur when:

  • Blockchain networks are congested

  • External APIs (from gift card providers) are slow

  • High traffic is being handled simultaneously

  • The gift card brand temporarily queues orders

These delays are rare and usually resolve on their own within minutes as the system retries and completes the validation process automatically.


3. Payment Processing Time Is Separate From Delivery Time

It is important to distinguish between payment confirmation time and delivery time. WizzGift delivers instantly after payment is confirmed.

Blockchain Crypto Payments

Crypto transactions must be confirmed on the blockchain before WizzGift can process the order. This confirmation time varies:

  • Lightning Network (Recommended):

    • Instant, usually under 1 second
  • Bitcoin / On-chain transactions:

    • 10–30 minutes typically

    • Can take 1–2 hours or even longer during heavy congestion

  • USDT/TRC20 & other fast chains:

    • 1–5 minutes usually, depending on chain load

WizzGift has no control over blockchain confirmation speeds. Once your transaction reaches the required confirmation(s), delivery begins immediately.


4. Crypto Wallet & Binance Pay Charges

Payments made through:

  • Crypto Wallets

  • Binance Pay

are instant once confirmed, but may include approximately 1% transaction fee.
This fee is charged by the wallet provider or exchange, not by WizzGift. Your order amount at WizzGift remains unchanged.


5. Using Your WizzGift Wallet Balance

For the fastest possible checkout, you can load balance into your WizzGift account.
Benefits include:

  • Instant delivery every time

  • No blockchain delays

  • Zero payment network fees

  • Perfect for frequent buyers

Funds added to the WizzGift wallet follow the same confirmation rules depending on the payment method you used to load the account.


6. Brand-Specific Delays (Rare Cases)

Certain gift card brands occasionally require additional verification before releasing digital codes. When this happens, your order may enter a “Pending Approval” state on the brand’s side.

Examples of when this may occur:

  • Sudden high demand for specific cards

  • Anti-fraud checks by the brand

  • Manual approval required for large denominations

  • Temporary technical delays from the provider

Your Options in These Cases:

  • Wait for the brand to approve the delivery (usually completed within a short time)

  • Request a refund if you do not wish to wait

Our support team monitors such delays closely and will keep you informed.


7. Credit Card Payments Through MoonPay

WizzGift supports payments through MoonPay, but customers should be aware of important details:

KYC Requirement

MoonPay requires identity verification for most credit and debit card transactions. Their KYC approval may take:

  • A few minutes, or

  • Sometimes longer, depending on documents and verification load

Additional Charges

Credit card transactions via MoonPay typically incur a 5–10% service fee, charged by MoonPay—not WizzGift.

Recommendation

For smooth and cost-efficient purchases, it is advisable to avoid credit card payments unless necessary. Crypto payments and WizzGift wallet balance are faster and cheaper.

Final Thoughts

At WizzGift, our mission is to deliver digital gift cards as fast and reliably as possible, ensuring a seamless user experience. While most orders are delivered instantly, factors such as blockchain confirmations, payment method, and brand-side approval can influence total delivery time. Choosing faster payment options like the Lightning Network or maintaining a WizzGift account balance ensures the quickest experience every time.
