Hello. I am a gameflip seller and this was the first to sell giftcards and to request a payout via paypal.

I have read the forum and I’ve heard a lot of stories that it takes from 10 seconds to 1 hour to successfully cashout via paypal.

It’s been an hour for me and it still needs approval.

I’m not blaming on Gameflip yet as I can wait until tomorrow but I want to see how long does it usually take.

Anyone cashout via paypal and took longer than 12 hours?

2 business days is the maximum. It usually takes less than 6 hours for most cases.
