For card errors/declined cards you must contact your credit card service provider if you want to find out more information.

When do you send the monthly boxes?
Shipping of the monthly boxes begin during the first week of each month.

This can depend on where you are in the world and when you placed the order. People on a subscription will be prioritised for early fulfilment. Typically monthly Astral Boxes begin ship during the 1st week of the month. It can be later on in the month depending on where you are in the world. Sometimes a little later heading into early the next month if it has quite far to travel.
Your shipment is tracked when possible (yes even international!) You are notified by e-mail of your shipment and given your personal tracking number, you can also keep up to date with which box is on it's way through your personal account.
