A new digital catalogue offers recommendations for New Zealand books and accompanying resources for students Year 7 and up.
Applicants can upload and send verification of the cost, which will likely be a quote from the supplier. If the payment is approved, they will receive notification by text or by email and the approved amount will be loaded to their payment card. The card can only be used for the amount and supplier for which it was approved.
Many of the applications that MSD approves for help with school uniforms and stationery are paid to schools.
General information for suppliers is available by visiting the Ministry of Social Development website(external link)
