Badges added to an account are not automatically ordered. Instead, they will be marked as active in the account and will be included in the next wear period shipment.
If you need a badge immediately rather than waiting for the next shipment, you will need to place a separate order.
For instructions on how to add and/or order a badge check out the below links.
If you are unsure when the next wear period begins, don't worry! The current wear period is indicated on the front of each badge.
