e-Card top ups (outside of the automatic top ups carried out at the start of the funding round) are done on a weekly basis, by our e-Card provider.
If you require a top up, please contact us in advance of needing your funding by phone on 0800 503 603, by filling in this online form or emailing cpsociety@cpsociety.org.nz
Top up requests received before 4pm on a Thursday will be processed by the following Monday.

Funding can be spent on products or services (but not gift cards) via a member’s e-Card. It can be used like an eftpos card, as well as online and in-person with retailers that don’t have eftpos facilities. However, a retailer must be registered with the Cerebral Palsy Society as a supplier to the getProgramme for a member to spend their funds with them.
Click here to find out who is registered as a supplier, or to find out about becoming a supplier.
If an organisation or company is interested in becoming a supplier, please contact our finance team by emailing accounts@cpsociety.org.nz to request more information.
getProgramme funding, accessed via a member’s e-Card, applies to the getOutThere, getPhysical, getThis&That and getUpAgain programmes.
getStructured and getDriving are separate to the e-Card funding.
** To check the balance on your e-card, please go to https://ecardsolutions.nz/portal/cps/ or check your last receipt.
