What is the eScrip program?

Participating merchants contribute each time you make a purchase using their grocery club or registered cards. There are no receipts to collect, no vouchers or certificates to buy, no hassles for you and every purchase counts.
 
How does it work?
eScrip has created a system that rewards customer loyalty by contributing a percentage of purchases made by participating individuals.

We encourage you and your family/friends to register your grocery club cards, and existing credit/debit cards as supporters. A percentage of all purchases made at eScrip merchants will be given back to the MLN.

Sign up online. It’s quick and easy! eScrip works with merchant partners to contribute to groups like ours each time you shop – at no cost to you!
 
Here is how you get started:
  1. Go to www.escrip.com
  2. Click on “sign-up”
  3. Follow the instructions to register your grocery cards and your existing credit/debit cards.
  4. Make sure you put in “Missouri League for Nursing” as the group you would like to support.
