To open a Prestopay Account:

after you are finished shopping on the “shopping with
scrips” page, you must first read the agreement and click “I Agree”.
-
The account information page is next. You will be
asked your bank name, account name (for your info only – for example “dad’s
checking account”), checking or savings, the routing number (the 9 digits on the
lower left of a check), and your account number (the lower right on the check).
-
Once you
have registered on Prestopay, you must wait 72 hours for the information to be
processed at Great Lakes Scrips in Michigan (only the first time you register
will you have to wait)
-
Your money for your gift cards will be transferred to
Great Lakes Scrips and the Friends of the Celtic Academy will receive a
percentage of your purchase added to their scrips account.

Look through the list of
participating retailers (click

in an envelope cleary marked with your name on it and “Gift Card Order”
and then slid into the payment box at the studio.

When
purchasing gift cards through our GLS Scrip program, keep in mind that
some are reloadable. Instead of purchasing new card after
new card, register your card with GLS Scrip and add money to
it. The Celtic Academy will still get the same percentage
as if you purchase a brand new card! Retailers
participating in this offer include Barnes & Noble, Mobil,
Old Navy, Papa John's, and Starbucks. See
www.shopwithscrip.com
