What is Fundscrip?
FundScrip is a fundraising program that asks you to pay for some of your everyday purchases with gift cards bought from FundScrip. A percentage of the cards that you purchase is then donated to Roch Carrier School Council and used to purchase things like computers, trees for the yard and field trips for the school. This is also a really convenient way to purchase gifts for birthdays, holidays, Mother’s Day, Father’s Day and teacher appreciation.
How do I get started?
Here is a quick start guide to get you going.
You will also need Roch Carrier’s invitation code: RR6V63
Gift cards can be ordered online through www.fundscrip.com once you have set up your account.

What Payment methods are accepted?
- Electronic Funds Transfer – Free
- Online Bill Payment – Free
- Also known as Online Payee, add FundScrip as a payee in your bank account and pay for orders as you would pay for any other bill. Please note that it can take at least three (3) business days for FundScrip to receive payment. For full details visit:

- Interac Online – Earnings reduced by $0.85 per order
- Available to those with accounts at the following financial institutions: RBC Royal Bank; BMO Bank of Montreal, ScotiaBank and TD Toronto Dominion
- Credit Card – Earnings reduced by 1.99%. For example if earnings from Superstore are 2%, paying by credit card will virtually wipe out any earnings from this retailer. Another retailer might give earnings of 10%, so for those Roch Carrier would still earn 8%.
How do I receive my gift cards?
You can order gift cards online any time and have them shipped to any Canadian address via Canada Post. The cost of the shipping ($0.85 plus taxes) will be added to the total of your order when you checkout.
There is a 4 card limit in each order to keep the weight down and a $500 maximum value of the cards. There is no schedule, so you can order multiple times in a day/week. Orders are processed Mon, Tues, Wed & Thurs at 9:00am ET so whatever you order, it just goes into the next batch once payment has been confirmed.
