NAFC Gift Card Drive

For friends, relatives and fans

A player asked you to help. Here's how.

You buy gift cards for stores you already use, at full face value. The retailer sends part of every card to the player's soccer club. It costs you nothing extra.

    Join North Atletico FC on FundScrip

    The link already has our group code in it. If it asks, the code is [CODE].

  2. Name the player who asked you

    Use the link the player sent you, or tell them the name on your FundScrip account, so you count for them in their team contest.

  3. Buy cards you'd buy anyway

    Groceries, gas, coffee, or holiday gifts. Spend them like cash.

What to buy

Biggest impact

Everyday spending

Groceries (3%) and gas (2%) on cards every week add up to the most over a year. Reload a card or buy an e-card on payday.

Holiday gifts

Gift cards as gifts

Until Dec 31, many cards pay the club 10 to 15%: Triple O's, Cactus Club, ALDO, Boston Pizza, AnyCard and more. E-cards arrive by email in minutes, so they work for last-minute gifts too. At checkout, add the 2.5% e-card fee so the club keeps its full share.

Rather not make an account?

Use the club order form instead. Pick your cards, then pay the club by e-Transfer to northatleticofc@gmail.com, never the player. Your physical cards come back in a sealed envelope with your name on it. Put the player's name on the order so it counts for them. The last club order before Christmas closes Fri Dec 11.

Deadlines

DeadlineWhat
Fri Nov 20Physical cards, round 1: order online or on the club order form
Fri Dec 11Physical cards, last round before Christmas (online, club order form, paper or business orders)
Thu Dec 31Holiday promo rates (up to 15%) end, and the player contest closes
AnytimeE-cards keep going after the physical-card rounds close. Delivered by email in minutes, and they count for the contest until Dec 31.

Physical cards ship to the club in one group order per round and are handed out at training. FundScrip can't guarantee arrival before Dec 25, so round 1 is the safe one.

Questions

What's the catch?

There isn't one. Retailers give FundScrip a volume discount to sell more gift cards, and part of that goes to the club. You pay face value and get face value.

Are the cards real?

Yes. They come straight from the retailers, the same cards you'd buy in the store. FundScrip has run in Canada since 2004.

Which stores aren't included?

Costco, Save-On-Foods and Alberta Co-op aren't on FundScrip right now. Hundreds of others are, at fundscrip.com/retailers.

Is there a fee?

E-cards have a 2.5% processing fee. It comes out of the club's share unless you choose to add it to your total at checkout, which takes a few dollars and keeps the club's full share. Physical cards ship to the club in our group order and are handed out at training.

Do the cards expire? Is it tax-deductible?

Almost never (provincial law), but check the back of the card. It isn't tax-deductible: it's a retailer rebate to the club, not a receipted donation.
