E-Wallet Information
What is Book Fair eWallet?
No more bills stuffed in backpacks! At the Scholastic Book Fair, kids shop without cash thanks to eWallet, a digital payment account for purchases at the Fair. Family and friends contribute funds. Then kids choose their own books. It’s convenient, simple, and secure.
How does it work?
It starts on your school’s Book Fair homepage. A child’s family follows a link to create a free eWallet account. There are three ways to fund an account: Add money with a credit card, use funds from a previous eWallet, or invite friends and extended family to contribute.
Because funds are available immediately, a child can shop the Fair with eWallet right away. Families can use a leftover balance to fund an eWallet for a future Fair.
How do you get started?

Teacher E-Wallets or Wishlists
If you would like to donate money to your child's teacher account for our book fair you may do so using the instructions above, but use the teacher's name as the account owner. I know this is always a blessing for our teachers. Teachers may also make a wish list or have a bin of books they would love for their classroom pulled. Ask myself or Mrs. Stogsdill for more information at the fair!
Share the Fair

With our new giving program, your school’s Book Fair has a built-in path to collect contributions from generous kids and adults in order to share the Fair experience with every kid in school.
