Billing there, delivery here
The delivery address goes in first, your billing address after — in your own format. Timing and tax follow the delivery address.
Billing: yours
Your card's registered address in New Zealand: street address, suburb, city and postcode. The recipient never sees it.
Their address
Everything the courier needs: street and unit, city, state, ZIP, and the recipient's phone in case nobody answers.
The dispatch cut-off in New Zealand's time
In New Jersey the warehouse stops packing at 2 p.m. Eastern; where you are, that moment is 6 a.m. the next day NZST — late in your day, so an order over breakfast is comfortably in time. You choose the recipient's delivery date at checkout; the dispatch cut-off and the transit time together decide the earliest one the checker will offer.

Currency and payment
The currency
US dollars throughout; the conversion to New Zealand dollars is your card issuer's, at its rate.
Which cards
Visa, Mastercard, American Express, Discover, Diners Club, JCB, Apple Pay and Google Pay. Foreign-issued cards are fine; the address check is against your card's record.
Nothing at the border
Assembled in New Jersey and delivered domestically — no import charge, no duty, no customs form.
After payment
Your statement shows the converted total in New Zealand dollars, plus whatever foreign-transaction fee your bank applies.
Writing the card and the address
English store, New Zealand sender: the card message is printed as you write it, in the letters you use every day.
The card message
Typed at checkout and printed as typed — accents and all.
Your side of the form
Street address, suburb, city and postcode — the format your card issuer knows.
Their address, US format
Street, city, two-letter state and five-digit ZIP; the checker accepts the ZIP alone.
Our customers' favourites
Too few New Zealand orders to rank on their own, so this is what senders across the store choose most, since January 2023.

21+ everywhere in the US
The drinking age is 21 in every state, so a gift with a bottle goes to someone 21+ and is handed over against photo ID.

Before you order from New Zealand
Will my card work?
Yes. Visa, Mastercard, American Express, Discover, Diners Club, JCB, Apple Pay and Google Pay issued anywhere are accepted; enter the billing address exactly as your bank holds it, in your own format.
How is the total worked out?
The price in US dollars plus delivery (free from $100 per address) and the recipient's state's sales tax, all shown at checkout. Your bank converts the total to New Zealand dollars at its rate; some issuers add a foreign-transaction fee. The recipient pays nothing.
Will the recipient be charged?
Nothing. The gift is assembled and delivered inside the United States, so there is no customs charge, no duty and no fee at the door.
When do I need to order?
Order by 2 p.m. Eastern, which the timing table above gives as 6 a.m. the next day NZST where you are, and the basket is packed and handed to the courier that business day, Monday to Friday. Transit to the Washington area follows — one to two business days to a District, Maryland or Virginia address. This store offers no same-day delivery, in the Washington area or anywhere else, so the date the checker gives is the earliest one available.
Can I order now for next week?
Any later date at checkout — the cut-offs only set the earliest day. The date you choose is the recipient's date in the United States, not yours.
Does the card print my message as typed?
Yes — typed at checkout and printed exactly as written, in English or English.
