About the SCRIP Program
There is an organization called the Great Lake Scrip Center and they are basically a distributor for a wide variety of gift cards. The basics are this: You sign up, search through the list of all the different retailers that offer gift cards through SCRIP, and make your order online. A GPA rep (currently Vicky Collins) sets a deadline for ordering and sends in a group order. Within 2-3 days, the cards will arrive, are sorted by Vicky Collins, then distributed to you.
The list of retailers is expansive and, best of all, are for purchases that most of us use everyday. When you buy the cards through this program, you will get a rebate that will go to your gymnast's fundraising account. Last year there were several parents that were able to pay large portions of their assessments with the rebates they received from the cards. EXAMPLE: Walmart is one of the retailers. The gift cards are available in $25, $100, $500 denominations. The rebate is 2%. So basically you buy the gift card for $25, and you will get $.50 rebate.
When you place an order there are two options for paying for you cards. You can write a check for your total. Make it out to the GPA. Or you can sign up for PRESTO-PAY. If you do that, then the amount you spend will be deducted directly from your checking account. It is very safe and secure!!!!! PRESTO-PAY is the easiest way to do it.

Presto Pay
Pay for your scrip gift cards online with PrestoPay™, the convenient payment system available on ShopWithScrip.com. When you use PrestoPay, your order payment is transferred securely via electronic debit. You won’t have to drop o any more checks!
PrestoPay is not a credit card system, because credit cards charge fees that are costly for our scrip program. Instead, PrestoPay uses the same electronic payment transfer used by direct deposit systems. It’s easy to use, and easy to get started! Simply log into your ShopWithScrip® account, click on the PrestoPay link in the left navigation column, and enter your checking account information. Complete the steps to verify your information, and you will receive a secure approval code to share with your scrip coordinator. That’s it! You will then be able to choose the PrestoPay option when you check out on ShopWithScrip.com, and have your payment securely transferred from your checking account right to our organization. A small $0.15 convenience fee will apply to each order. For more information about this online scrip payment system, view the instructional videos found on the same PrestoPay page on your ShopWithScrip account. DOWNLOAD INFO |
