What is the RFID Smart Band?

The Smart Band is a water-resistant, disposable bracelet that acts as a secure account identifier for cashless purchases at Camp Au Sable. Your camper can purchase snacks, beverages and supplies without the worry of misplaced cash or credit cards during the camp session.

How do I get a Smart Band for my camper?

You can get a Smart Band for your camper by going to https://www.freedompay.com/SignUp/SelectOrigination.aspx and select your camp, or by calling FreedomPay toll-free at 888-495-0222. In just a few moments, you can personalize and fund your camper's bracelet. A bracelet will be prepared for pick up upon arrival at camp.

What are the benefits of the Smart Band?

There are several benefits, including:

  • No need for your camper to carry a wallet or cash during camp
  • Always have funds available for purchases of snacks, beverages, and supplies
  • The Smart Band is water resistant and sweat-proof
  • You will have the ability to monitor your camper's spending via the Web at www.myfreedompay.com

How do I add funds to my camper's Smart Band?

You can add funds to your camper's Smart Band account electronically on the FreedomPay website with either a credit/debit card or a bank account transfer. Funds are available immediately, and you can add funds as often as you like. Additionally, FreedomPay offers an optional auto funding feature which will automatically add funds when your camper's Smart Band account balance reaches $10.

Are there any costs associated with using the Smart Band?

There is a one-time $1 administration fee for each Smart Band added when you start the account and an additional 3.25% of your fund/refund amount to cover the cost of electronic funding. So, the typical account will cost about $5 to set up and fund. A real deal when compared to the inconvenience and cost of a lost credit card or misplaced cash; not to mention the inability for further purchases during the remainder of camp. Your camper may use the Smart Band for unlimited purchases, up to the account balance, without any additional costs.

How much money should I add to my camper's Account?

The minimum fund amount is $10. However, you may fund your camper's account with up to $200 at a time. The Smart Band allows your camper to enjoy the convenience of enjoying a cold beverage or a tasty snack without the worry of not having cash readily available.

What do I get for the Account Setup Fees?

  • Safe, secure and personalized account setup
  • Secure bracelet pickup at camp
  • Web access to monitor your camper's spending
  • Unlimited electronic funding throughout your camper's stay
  • Refund of any remaining balance over $5 following the camp
  • Your camper will have convenient access to disable their account or replace a lost or damaged bracelet
  • Peace of mind in knowing that your camper will always have funds available without the risk of lost cash or credit cards

What if my camper does not use all of the money on the account?

No problem. Simply contact FreedomPay by calling 888-495-0222 at the end of camp, and you balance will be refunded.
