Halifax Clarity Card - time to receive the card

Hi all,

I had a Halifax credit card which I wasn't using anymore. Yesterday I applied online to swap it a Clarity card as I am going for a holiday soon & it was successful. I received an email saying "your card is being prepared & will be posted to you in next few days".
Does anyone here know roughly how long does Halifax take to send out cards after successful online applications?

    You said you applied online to swap it a Clarity card
    I wonder how did you redesignate (swap) your the Halifax credit to become a clarity card by applying online ?. Is it the same process with applying a newcard or there is particular form to swap the card ?

    You can apply to swap your existing card to another online after logging into your account.
