When Will My Digital Download Arrive?
Most completed digital orders are emailed promptly, while retouching or another image service can delay delivery.
Quick answer: Most completed digital orders are delivered by email shortly after checkout. Retouching, image services, an order hold, or an incorrect email address can delay the message.
What normally happens
- The order is completed and receives an order number.
- The digital-delivery message is sent to the email entered at checkout.
- The message contains a link to download a ZIP folder with the purchased image file or files.
- The customer downloads, extracts, and backs up the files.
The customer-service email shown on the order receipt is info@vangoghphoto.com. The automated digital-delivery message may use a different sender name or subject line, so search by the Order Number and the words “digital download” as well as Van Gogh.
Reasons delivery may take longer
- Retouching, brace removal, or another image service must be completed first.
- The order is being reviewed because of an image, payment, or fulfillment issue.
- The order includes a product configured for later delivery.
- The email address was entered incorrectly.
- The message went to spam, junk, promotions, or an unsubscribed/blocked folder.
- The order did not actually complete even though a pending card authorization appeared.
Before purchasing again
Check for an order number and search every email folder. Do not purchase the digital product a second time solely because the delivery email is missing. Customer Support can verify the original order and resend the link when appropriate.
Important: The download link is time-limited. Download and back up the files promptly rather than relying on the email as permanent storage.
