expect your card to be delivered within seven days
Here the full text of the email Sinemia sends customers after their purchase:
We have received your payment.

private card for yourSinemiaPremium membership
Your card will be delivered to the shipping units within generally in 7 days, although it can vary depending on the campaign periods
Please note that the estimated time of delivery may also vary depending on the destination and workload of the shipping company at the time
You may start enjoying movie experience withSinemiaPremium right after completing your Premium card activation
