How long will it take for my magazine subscription to begin?
The industry standard magazine delay times are 8 to 12 weeks. This is the standard processing times on most magazine orders, and they remain constant regardless of which company the order is placed with. It all depends on the printing cycle of the magazine. Some magazine publishers take longer then others. A general rule for when you can expect to receive the magazine: Daily 4-8 Weeks, Weekly 6-10 Weeks, Monthly 8-12 Weeks, Bi-Monthly & Quarterly 10-16 Weeks


What happens after my order is placed? How is it shipped?

After you place your order, you will receive a confirmation e-mail from us. Soon afterwards we will submit your order to the publisher through our clearinghouses. The publisher will then add your information to their database and will ship the magazine to you via the U.S. Postal Service. After you receive your first issue, your account can be handled by the publisher and shop4magazines.com. As mentioned above this whole process takes 8-12 weeks, on average. 


Are there any additional charges such as shipping & handling?

No. There are no additional fees at all. The price that is listed for each magazine is all you pay. 


Where do you ship to?

We can ship to US and Canada only.

What form of payments do you accept?

We accept all major credit and debit cards on our secure server:
