Questions gift buyers ask

What does the binary code mean?

It is their birthdate written the way computers store numbers: year, month and day, each converted to 1s and 0s. Only people who know how to read binary will know what it says.

How do I get their binary code?

Enter their birthday at binarybirthday.com and click Order. The code is filled in for you on the product page. You can also paste it in yourself.

Can I use a different date?

Yes. Anniversaries, wedding days, a first commit or a launch date all work. Any date can be converted on binarybirthday.com.

When will it arrive?

Each item is printed to order, then shipped. See our shipping policy for current times, and order early in December for holiday delivery.

Is there a discount?
