Special Orders

What scrip is available for Special Order? Many vendors in many denominations are available for special orders, through RaiseRight.com or your RaiseRight Scrip App.   

Why is prepayment required for Physical  Scrip Special Orders? We cannot guarantee that we will find another family willing to purchase the scrip you special ordered. Therefore, you are required to prepay for all physical special order scrip. Place your order online and pay with your bank account or a check which must be in the Darboy Scrip office by 5:00 p.m. on Sunday evening when we place the weekly scrip order.

What is the delivery schedule for Special Orders? Special Orders are ordered from our supplier, along with our regular in-stock order. You will be called/texted or emailed when your scrip is ready for pickup. Generally, speaking, special order scrip will be ready for pickup in Darboy by Thursday afternoon.

When do I need to let the scrip office know if I need an unusually large amount of scrip? Kwik Trip and Menards–We order directly as needed and would be able to accommodate a large order with a four-day notice.

Best Buy, Lowe’s & Home Depot are available as e-cards through RaiseRight which allows you to purchase virtual scrip within minutes after you are enrolled and have your Bank Account set up at RaiseRight.com

There are two options for payment of special order physical scrip cards. One is to bring your check or cash into the Darboy scrip office along with the special order report after you have placed your order online. Once the money has been received by the Darboy scrip office and marked paid, your order will be submitted along with the rest of the weekly scrip order to RaiseRight.com and should arrive by Thursday afternoon. 

The faster method for payment of special orders is to enroll and attach your bank account to your RaiseRight.com account. This system allows RaiseRight to do an ACH direct withdrawal from your bank account and your special order is automatically sent with the weekly scrip order.

RaiseRight.com scrip vendors offer up to three form factors: physical scrip cards, electronic scrip cards known as e-cards, and physical scrip cards that can be reloaded. Physical re-loadable scrip cards must be purchased from Holy Spirit through RaiseRight.com to be reloadable.   Not all RaiseRight.com vendors are available in all form factors. Some offer e-cards while others offer reloadability. Some offer both while some only offer physical scrip cards.

With RaiseRight.com's payment system, you can be in Best Buy, and place a scrip order on your smartphone through the RaiseRight App. Within minutes, the barcode of your e-card will be available on your smartphone for the Best Buy clerk to scan for payment at the checkout.

Many vendors are available as e-cards for your convenience.

Direct Checks

How do direct checks for local scrip vendors work? We write a check to the vendor minus the crediting amount. You would pay the full amount owed to the vendor, to the scrip program, and we give you the check written out to the vendor for you to bring to the vendor for full payment. We use this for The Sleep Shop, John Van Hoof DDS, Timothy Vosters DDS, The Learning RX, Carpet Mart, D & M Interiors, Floors by Roberts, Premier Appliance, Suess Electronics, Van Vreede’s and any other local scrip vendor for which you would have an invoice. There is approximately a one-week turnaround time for a direct check.
 

Tuition Crediting

How often is my scrip credit applied to my school or faith formation tuition? Scrip credits are posted quarterly towards your outstanding tuition. If you are paid up for the school year, your scrip credits will accumulate in your scrip account for the next school year.
 

Scrip Transfers and Distributions

What happens to the money in my scrip account after my children are out of school and/or Faith Formation? Your money stays in your scrip account until you designate a distribution as long as you continue to make scrip purchases. Scrip accounts are considered dormant if there are no scrip purchases on the account for 2 years. Dormant accounts are donated to the parish.

What happens to the money in my scrip account if I leave the parish? Any money in your scrip account that you have not designated for distribution will go to the parish.

Can I transfer money from my scrip account to another family? Yes, the money in your scrip account can be transferred to another family. Use the following form: Scrip Funds Transfer Request.

Scrip Discrepancies If you feel you were given the wrong scrip, please contact Jeanne.  We will check your order form to compare your request to what you received. In this situation, bring your scrip cards to the scrip office. We would verify the scrip card’s balance and exchange it for your original request.

If your order form is filled out incorrectly and the seller doesn’t catch the error; you will be notified when we enter it in the computer. We will invoice you if you underpaid or give you a scrip card credit for future use if you overpaid.

If you feel you are missing scrip from your order, call Jeanne. We will review the situation when we do our weekly inventory. Remember to always count your scrip back to the seller to verify that your order is accurate before you sign at the bottom of the order form.

NSF checks You will be charged the current bank NSF check fee for the first NSF check. You will be charged $40 for the second NSF check fee and be required to pay cash for one year.

Check Discrepancies If you fill out your check incorrectly, the bank will notify us of the discrepancy and include a photocopy of your check. Banks withdraw the written description of the dollar amount, not the numeral amount when they do not match.
