Purchasing Using School Purchase Orders
School and district purchasing
Purchase orders made simple
Counselors build a list and send it for approval. Administrators approve it and pay by card or purchase order in a few clicks. The resources are emailed right away, and the invoice arrives by email.
Counselor? Send your list for approval
Each license covers one counselor. If two counselors will use the same resource, set it to 2.
Tap the heart on any resource to save it to your wishlist, or add resources to your cart.
Open your wishlist or cart and choose Send to my administrator. An email opens in your own Gmail or Outlook, ready to send.
Your administrator clicks the link to review the list, approve it, and pay. The resources come straight to your email.
Administrator or business office? Order with a PO
No account or phone call needed. Place the order online and the invoice is emailed to your billing contact.
Open the approval link a counselor sent you, or add resources to the cart yourself.
Enter your PO number and billing contact, then check out and choose Purchase Order - Check.
The resources are emailed right away. The invoice (Net 30) can be paid online by card or by check.
How a purchase order works
From list to paid invoice, without waiting on anyone.

Add each resource and set the licenses to the number of counselors who will use it. Bundle discounts apply automatically: 5% off 3 or more, up to 20% off 20 or more.

Purchase-order FAQs
Answers to the questions schools ask most often.
When does the counselor get the resources?
Right away. As soon as the order is placed, the resources are emailed to the address entered at checkout, even when your school pays by purchase order or check.
Do we need a PO number before ordering?
No. Place the order and send the PO number to payments@brightfutures-counseling.com when it is issued. If your district needs a formal quote before it will issue a PO, choose Generate Quote for Purchase Order in the cart.
How do we pay the invoice?
Use the Pay now button in the invoice email to pay by card, or mail a check payable to Thrive International LLC dba Bright Futures Counseling, 641 San Roy Drive South, Dunedin, FL 34698. Please write the invoice number on the check.
Who receives the invoice?
The billing contact you enter in the cart or on the approval page. If none is entered, the invoice goes to the email used at checkout.
What if our school is tax exempt?
Email your tax-exempt certificate and school name to payments@brightfutures-counseling.com before you order so I can set up your account correctly.
Can more than one counselor use the same license?
No. Each resource license and each IMPACT license covers one counselor at a time. If two counselors need the same activity, set it to 2 licenses.
Can we pay by ACH or another method?
Yes. Email payments@brightfutures-counseling.com with the invoice number and I will send what you need.
