Purchased an Apple gift card, and it still has not been delivered. Any help on how to resolve this?

I purchased an Apple gift card from Apple.com to be delivered via email, and I still haven't received it after 7 hours. This is the first time this has happened; it usually arrives within an hour. My card has been deducted. How do I receive my card? I am not in the US, and unable to call Apple.

Hi, it can sometimes take up to 24 hours for Apple gift cards to arrive. Here are a few steps you can try:


  • Check all email folders – including spam, junk and promotions.
  • Verify the email address – ensure the email entered for the gift card is correct.
  • Check for payment confirmation – confirm that the payment has been processed successfully.
  • Wait a little longer – delivery can occasionally be delayed.
  • Contact Apple Support directly – if you still don’t see the gift card after 24 hours, reach out to Apple Support with your order number for further assistance.


This will help Apple verify your purchase and resend the gift card if needed.


Good Luck! 👋🏼😉
