What must a school or charitable organization provide to be eligible for a discount?

To be eligible for a discount, a school or charitable organization must provide proof that the merchandise is being paid for using an organization-specific method, such as an organization card, check, or credit card that bears the name of the entity. This requirement ensures that the discount is applied only to legitimate purchases made by recognized institutions, preventing misuse of the discount offer.

Using a payment method associated with the school or charitable organization legitimizes the transaction and confirms the identity of the organization, qualifying them for the discount. Other options, while they may seem relevant, do not provide the necessary verification that the purchase is indeed being made by the organization in question. For example, proof of address, a membership card, or identification of all members does not confirm that the payment is validly processed in the name of the organization seeking the discount.
