Delivery information

Free delivery on all subscriptions
The subscription prices for the magazines listed on magazine.co.uk all include free delivery.

Estimated delivery date of your first issue
magazine.co.uk only acts as a sales agent for the publishers of the magazines featured on the site and does not handle delivery. The delivery of your magazine is managed directly by the publishers themselves, and unfortunately magazine.co.uk does not have access to specific delivery schedules for any individual publication.

However, as a rough guide, the delivery date of your first issue will generally fall within the following industry standard timescales:

  • Weekly publications - between two and four weeks from order
  • Monthly publications - between two and six weeks from order
  • Bi-monthly publications - between four and eight weeks from order
  • National Geographic - between eight and twelve weeks from order

If you do not receive your first issue within these timescales, please contact the publisher of the magazine directly and they will be able to advise you. Contact details for all our publisher partners can be found here.

Christmas gift delivery
If you have ordered a Christmas gift subscription your lucky recipient should receive the first issue (which will be despatched by the publisher) just after Christmas, or in the New Year. Please note that this estimate may vary depending on the frequency of the title you have selected. 

To request an exact delivery date for an order, please contact the publisher of the magazine directly and they will be able to advise you. Contact details for all our publisher partners can be found here.

Single issue delivery
All single issue orders placed before 2:30pm will be dispatched on the same working day. Orders placed after 2:30pm will be dispatched on the next working day. All orders are sent Royal Mail 1st Class - please refer to the Royal Mail website for delivery timescales.

Newspaper voucher delivery
Your newspaper vouchers will be sent out to you after your order has been processed by the publisher. This will typically mean delivery can be expected within 2 to 3 weeks.

Delivery of free gifts
Any gifts offered free with subscriptions will be sent separately to your magazine. Please allow up to six weeks from order for these to arrive.

Change of delivery address
If you wish to change the delivery address for your subscription at any time, please contact the publisher directly as magazine.co.uk can not make address changes to any active subscriptions. Contact details for all our publisher partners can be found here.
