    WHAT IS CARDSPLUG?

    CardsPlug is home to the world’s favourite personalised football card. Or in other words, we’re where football dreams come to life!

    Our football cards are inspired by football games like FIFA22 and FIFA21. But instead of only giving professional footballers a card, we let you turn any fan into a star.

    Since 2017 we’ve delighted over 200,000 football fans worldwide. Making our cards the world’s most popular personalised football gift!

    This year we're a running a 30% sitewide sale from November 1st. Go here to shop our biggest Black Friday deal now.

     

    WAIT, WHAT'S BLACK FRIDAY AGAIN?

    Black Friday is a huge online sale that usually takes place in late November. It’s basically the time of year when stores like CardsPlug offer their best deals ahead of Christmas. 

    Because of 2021’s unique nature, we decided to launch our biggest sitewide Black Friday deal on November 1st this year. Keep reading to find out why we thought this was the right thing to do for our community of fans.


    WHY SO EARLY?

    Winter 2021 is likely to be online shopping’s busiest ever time. Which will only add to the slight delays you usually get with Christmas shipping. 

    Combine that with things like truck driver shortages, Brexit, etc and it kind of makes sense to get your Christmas shopping done a little earlier this year.

    That's why we decided to drop our biggest deal early, and guarantee it with our global Black Friday Delivery Guarantee.


    WHAT’S THE DEAL?

    We’re slashing everything on our website by a massive 30%. There’s no discount code needed, as the price of everything on our site has been reduced. We’ve done this so there’s no chance you’ll miss this massive saving. 

    We know that shipping times are a big concern around Christmas. Especially for our international customers. So we are also guaranteeing Xmas delivery for every order made before Black Friday itself (Friday November 26th). 

    In the highly unlikely event your gift doesn’t arrive before Christmas, we'll refund your order if it was made on or before November 26th. This applies no matter what country you're shipping an order to. Even if it's Australia!

     

    WHEN WILL MY CARD ARRIVE?

    Our Christmas design and printing times are 4-6 working days for standard orders and 2-3 days for Super Fast Track orders. 

    This does not include shipping time, which depends on your location and the shipping option you choose at checkout.

    What does this mean? Well, if you order in November it's likely your package will arrive much earlier than Christmas. We just added the Black Friday Guarantee as an extra layer of safety for our global customers.

    Shipments to some countries take longer than others. So make sure to check out our global Christmas shipping guide - and play it safe if you can.

     

    WHEN DOES THE DEAL END?

    Our 30% off sitewide deal for November deal runs from the evening of November 1st to roughly 06:00 UK time on December 1st. 

    Of course, we can still take and deliver Christmas orders past this date. For recommended Christmas order dates around the world, please look at our Christmas Shipping support article here.

    There won't be a bigger sitewide discount after this date. So it might make sense to order early, if you can.


    WHAT'S A SITEWIDE DEAL?

    The 30% off Black Friday deal applies to everything on our website and there's no need to remember a promo code. That's what we mean by sitewide.

    There will not be a bigger sitewide deal on CardsPlug.com this winter. But we do like to reward members of our VIP email list with (very) limited time flash sales from time to time.

    We will also be running a Deal Of The Week throughout the winter period. This will give you the chance to save extra on certain bundles. 

    The easiest way to stay updated is to join our email list, if you haven't already. 


    WHAT GUARANTEES DO I GET?

    We’ve already covered the Black Friday Delivery Guarantee. As a quick reminder, this guarantees that any order made on or before Black Friday (November 26th) will arrive before Christmas.

    As a CardsPlug customer, you also benefit from our Gold Standard Guarantee. This is our standard guarantee that applies to every CardsPlug order, year round.

    Our Gold Standard Guarantee means this: If your order arrives damaged or there is a mistake of any kind, we will replace your card for free and use the fastest shipping method available. 

    Just to be 100% clear, replacements may not be covered by our Black Friday Delivery Guarantee if they are processed after November 26th. But we will use the very fastest shipping method available to us.
