Orders that pass automated verification are generally set up within minutes. Some orders need additional verification before payment processing and setup can proceed.
Check your email for any verification request. If your order is pending or you need an update, open a support ticket.

Account approval and VM deployment are separate steps. After your service is ready, create a VM and allow its operating system to finish initializing before connecting. Deployment time depends on the selected template and configuration.
