Hi @Royal_cookies

Readers usually arrive within 10 days. You should receive it soon, however if you need one immediately you can pick one up from a local retail store. 

You'll pay for the magnetic stripe reader in the store, however each package comes with a redemption code that can be used to credit your account for the reader, so it's still free.
